Wild capuchins (cebus capucinus) fail to use tools

American Journal of Primatology, 2004
AbstractFrom September through November 2000 we conducted an experimental field study of tool use in a group of 15 wild white‐faced capuchins (Cebus capucinus) in Costa Rica. The problem presented to the capuchins involved the use of wooden dowels as probes to obtain a food reward (two bananas) located inside a clear Plexiglas box.

Predictors of reproductive success in female white‐faced capuchins (Cebus capucinus)

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2008
AbstractEarly investigations into variable reproductive success in nonhuman primates tended to focus on the benefits conferred by high dominance rank. However, the effect of high rank on individual reproductive success has been found to vary both intra‐ and interspecifically, requiring researchers to expand their investigations to include additional ...

A 32-yr-old white-throated capuchin monkey (Cebus capucinus) was presented for paraparesis. A diagnosis of protozoal meningitis was made on the basis of a lymphocytic pleocytosis with elevated protein in cerebrospinal fluid and a positive serum titer to Toxoplasma gondii of 131,072 using an indirect hemagglutination test. Treatment with clindamycin and

Life history and locomotion in Cebus capucinus and Alouatta palliata

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2009
AbstractAs an individual matures from birth to adulthood, many factors may influence the positional repertoire. The biological and behavioral changes that accompany a growing individual are expected to influence foraging strategy, social status and interaction, diet, predator avoidance strategies, and ultimately positional behavior as a behavioral link
