Conflitos entre macacos-prego e visitantes no Parque Nacional de Brasília: possíveis soluções / Conflicts between capuchin monkeys and visitors inside the Brasília National Park: possible solutions [PDF]

Sociedade & Natureza, 2010
Os conflitos entre os visitantes e os macacos-prego na área das piscinas do Parque Nacional de Brasília (PNB) têm origem na presença de alimentos levados pelos próprios visitantes, objetos de atração dos macacos-prego. Com base na literatura e resultados

Global distribution and contexts of interactions between humans and non‐human primates: A systematic review

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 551-568, March 2026.
Abstract Understanding the frequency and socio‐ecological drivers of contacts between humans and non‐human primates (NHPs) is crucial for enhancing coexistence that favours NHP conservation, while limiting negative consequences such as aggressions and cross‐species disease transmission.

Behavioral flexibility of a group of bearded capuchin monkeys (Cebus libidinosus) in the National Park of Brasília (Brazil): consequences of cohabitation with visitors

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Increasing urbanization and deforestation have enhanced the opportunities of contact between humans and monkeys and the impact of human activities on primate behavior is receiving growing attention.

Close encounters of the friendly kind: pacific between‐group interactions in primates

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2257-2284, December 2025.
ABSTRACT While intergroup conflict features prominently in the behavioural ecology literature, its antonym, intergroup peace, has been a rather neglected phenomenon until recently. Neighbourly relations and affiliative interactions are far from uncommon.

Between dunes and estuary: Forecasting mangrove forest change on primate culture and isolated livelihoods in Maranhão, Brazil

Geo: Geography and Environment, Volume 12, Issue 2, July‐December 2025.
Short Abstract The unique ecological conditions of the mangrove forests in the Rio Preguiças Estuary, Maranhão, Brazil, support a culturally isolated population of bearded capuchin monkeys and contribute significantly to the livelihoods and economy of the local community.

Moving

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 2, February 2025.
A career in primatology of a comparative psychologist/ethologist spans teaching, mentoring, university and professional service, and research: experimental and observational studies of primates, including studies of bearded capuchin monkeys cracking nuts with stone hammers and anvils (photo courtesy of Barth Wright).

Ontogenetic biomechanics of tufted (Sapajus) and untufted (Cebus) capuchin mandibles

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 185, Issue 2, October 2024.
Abstract Objectives Cortical bone geometry is commonly used to investigate biomechanical properties of primate mandibles. However, the ontogeny of these properties is less understood. Here we investigate changes in cortical bone cross‐sectional properties throughout capuchin ontogeny and compare captive versus wild, semi‐provisioned groups.

Terrestriality across the primate order: A review and analysis of ground use in primates

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 33, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Terrestriality is relatively rare in the predominantly arboreal primate order. How frequently, and when, terrestriality appears in primate evolution, and the factors that influence this behavior, are not well understood. To investigate this, we compiled data describing terrestriality in 515 extant nonhuman primate taxa.

Manual preference, performance, and dexterity for bimanual grass‐feeding behavior in wild geladas (Theropithecus gelada)

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 86, Issue 5, May 2024.
We assessed whether wild geladas, highly specialized terrestrial grass eaters, are lateralized for bimanual grass‐plucking behavior. Their manual dexterity was also evaluated. Abstract We assessed whether wild geladas, highly specialized terrestrial grass eaters, are lateralized for bimanual grass‐plucking behavior.

The effects of feeding frequency on jaw loading in two lemur species

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 184, Issue 1, May 2024.
Abstract Objectives Studies on oral processing are often snapshots of behaviors that examine feeding through individual bouts. In this study, we expand on our previous work comparing bite/chew variables per feeding bout to summed daily biting, chewing, and food intake to interpret loading that could have potential morphological effects.
