Impacted Bones: Can Extant Primates Help Identify Tool Use in Early Hominins?
ABSTRACT Despite recent advances pushing back the earliest record of tool use, how and when it first emerged in hominins, and the extent to which it featured amongst the numerous co‐existing species, remain critical questions in paleoanthropology. In addition to analyzing fossils and lithic toolkits, novel strides in understanding this might be made by

A comparison of neuroanatomical features of the brain between humans and our evolutionary relatives, nonhuman primates, is key to understanding the human brain system and the neural basis of mental and neurological disorders.

Meat Acquisition Skill and Male Reproductive Success in Guinea Baboons
ABSTRACT Objectives In human foraging societies, hunting skill is often interpreted as a signal of male quality linked to reproductive success through his ability to provision his family and community. Similarly, in some bird and insect species, males offer mates food to indicate their quality as a provider.

Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective
We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.

Decolonizing the capuchin monkey?
This article explores the colonial dimensions of Salzburg’s cultural heritage by examining the early modern Cabinet of Art and Curiosities in the former residence of the prince-archbishops. The collection serves as a case study tracing historical global entanglements of European colonialism and to critically assess museal practices.

Climate change is increasingly impacting arboreal mammals, yet these effects vary across regions and taxa, and global syntheses to inform conservation priorities remain limited. This study presents the first global synthesis of climate change impacts on arboreal mammals using a systematic review, meta‐analysis, and bibliometric analysis.

ABSTRACT Background Owl monkeys (Aotus spp.) are a nocturnal nonhuman primate (NHP) native to central and South America that are used as infectious disease research models for human diseases, such as malaria and human immunodeficiency virus. Natural and infectious diseases may cause alterations in the hematology and serum biochemistry values, which ...

ABSTRACT Wildlife captive populations are important tools for threatened species conservation, and early identification of diseases must be prioritized. In this study, we test for the presence of anti‐Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in non‐human primates at a Zoo from Pernambuco State, Brazil.
