Le Bonobo : Origine des HTLV mais pas du VIH

open access: yesRevue de Primatologie, 2014
Les grands singes d’Afrique sont les réservoirs du VIH et HTLV responsables d’épidémies et de pandémies. Cependant, chez les bonobos, un grand singe endémique de la RDC, peu de données sont disponibles sur les infections rétrovirales.

The right time to happen: play developmental divergence in the two Pan species.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Bonobos, compared to chimpanzees, are highly motivated to play as adults. Therefore, it is interesting to compare the two species at earlier developmental stages to determine how and when these differences arise.

First Detailed Anatomical Study of Bonobos Reveals Intra-Specific Variations and Exposes Just-So Stories of Human Evolution, Bipedalism, and Tool Use

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Just-so stories are prominent in human evolution literature because of our tendency to create simple progressionist narratives about our “special” place in nature, despite the fact that these stories are almost exclusively based on hard tissue data.

Differences in the ability of apes and children to instruct others using gestures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In all human cultures, people gesture iconically. However, the evolutionary basis of iconic gestures is unknown. In this study, chimpanzees and bonobos, and 2- and 3-year-old children, learned how to operate two apparatuses to get rewards. Then, at test,

The founder sociality hypothesis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
In this review, we propose that the social dynamics of founder populations in novel and newly available environments can have critical effects in shaping species' sociality and can produce long‐lasting changes in social structure and behavior.

Iconic gesturing in bonobos

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2015
We comment on a recent behavioral study in which we describe a human-like beckoning gesture in 2 groups of bonobos, used in combination with sexual solicitation postures. The beckoning gesture fulfils key criteria of deixis and iconicity, in that it communicates to a distant recipient the desired travel path in relation to a specific social intention ...

Stratégies de manipulation d'outil chez les humains et les bonobos

open access: yesRevue de Primatologie, 2015
La main humaine est considérée comme unique au travers certaines spécificités fonctionnelles comme l’individualisation des doigts et la capacité de saisir avec puissance un outil entre le pouce et le côté latéral de l'index.

Functional Differences in Muscle Architecture Across the Pelvis and Hind Limb of Primates. [PDF]

open access: yesAm J Biol Anthropol
ABSTRACT Objectives Understanding the architectural diversity of primate musculature is essential for interpreting locomotor function and reconstructing evolutionary adaptations. This study examines whether interspecific differences in pelvic and hind limb muscle architecture reflect functional differentiation among major muscle groups.
