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.

Structural, functional, and evolutionary links between two behavioral by‐products (i.e., stone play and female‐to‐female mounting—FFM) and their putative corresponding behavioral adaptations (i.e., stone tool use and female‐to‐male mounting—FMM) in Balinese long‐tailed macaques and Japanese macaques.

Defining AV2‐1 as a novel pharmacological probe to target human and rodent TRPV2
Abstract Background and Purpose Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) is a non‐selective cation channel implicated in immune cell functions. However, progress in understanding TRPV2 has been limited by a lack of potent and selective pharmacological tools, particularly those targeting the human variant. We aimed to identify and characterise a

ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated

The Importance of Sociality and Diet in Explaining Variation in the Bonobo Gut Microbiota
Bonobo sociality explains more of the variation in the beta diversity for the bonobo gut microbiota than diet. ABSTRACT Gut microbial communities or the gut microbiota are of increasing interest due to the important role they play in nutrition, development, health, and disease.

Beyond Body Mass, Beyond Adulthood: The Ontogeny of Sexual Size Monomorphism
ABSTRACT Objectives Contest competition for mates and female reproductive energetics influence body size and sexual dimorphism across many primates; nevertheless, some monomorphic species defy these patterns. These deviations may reflect biological anthropology's focus on body mass and adult size as defining features of sexual dimorphism.
