Functions of Intermittent Locomotion in Mustached Tamarins (Saguinus mystax) [PDF]
, 2010 Many animals interrupt their moving with brief pauses, which appear to serve several different functions. We examined the function of such intermittent locomotion in wild living mustached tamarins (Saguinus mystax), small arboreal New World primates that
