Individualistic female dominance hierarchies with varying strength in a highly folivorous population of black-and-white colobus [PDF]

, 2013
Females that do not experience strong contest competition for food are presumed to form egalitarianâ relationships (i.e., lacking strong, linear dominance hierarchies).

Health Correlates of Extended Longevity in Captive Ring‐Tailed Lemurs (Lemur catta)

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 12, December 2025.
Male and female ring‐tailed lemurs exhibit distinct patterns of age‐related change in certain serum chemistry markers. Photo by David Haring. ABSTRACT Captive primates maintained at accredited institutions can live extraordinarily long lives and, as a result, are useful models for understanding the physiology of aging. Many institutions monitor primate

Bystanders, parcelling, and an absence of trust in the grooming interactions of wild male chimpanzees [PDF]

, 2016
The evolution of cooperation remains a central issue in socio-biology with the fundamental problem of how individuals minimize the risks of being short-changed (‘cheated’) should their behavioural investment in another not be returned. Economic decisions

Bone marrow mononuclear cells versus mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue on bone healing in an Old World primate: can this be extrapolated to humans?

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia
In veterinary medicine, the cell therapy is still unexplored and there are many unanswered questions that researchers tend to extrapolate to humans in an attempt to treat certain injuries.

Proximate factors underpinning receiver responses to deceptive false alarm calls in wild tufted capuchin monkeys: is it counterdeception? [PDF]

, 2012
Previous research demonstrates that tufted capuchin monkeys use terrestrial predator alarm calls in a functionally deceptive manner to distract conspecifics when feeding on contestable resources, although the success of this tactic is limited because ...

Hand and foot pressures in the aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) reveal novel biomechanical trade-offs required for walking on gracile digits [PDF]

, 2010
Arboreal animals with prehensile hands must balance the complex demands of bone strength, grasping and manipulation. An informative example of this problem is that of the aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis), a rare lemuriform primate that is unusual ...

Proteomic Signatures of Epigenetic Age in African Green Monkey Cerebrospinal Fluid and Plasma

Aging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 10, October 2025.
Epigenetic age together with plasma and CSF proteomes were quantified in a large number of African green monkeys. This study identified new accessible protein biomarkers (“clocks”) for understanding aging biology and to track changes in the rate of biological aging in a translationally relevant nonhuman primate model.

Investigating primate densities and human-primate conflict in Tembaro Community Conserved Forest, Omo River Basin, Ethiopia

BMC Zoology
Background Human-primate conflict is a global conservation challenge, particularly in densely populated, low-income countries like Ethiopia. The Omo River Valley forest belt, spanning across the Omo River in Ethiopia to Lake Turkana in Kenya, harbors a ...

The Free‐Range Rock Cavy (Kerodon rupestris) Communicates the Urgency of a Threat Using Different Alarm Calls

Ethology, Volume 131, Issue 10, Page 175-186, October 2025.
Rock cavy alarm calls are finely modulated by threat proximity. ABSTRACT This study examines whether rock cavies (Kerodon rupestris), which are social rodents, modulate their alarm calls in response to various threat contexts. Conducted across four sample areas within two study sites in the Brazilian Caatinga region, alarm calls were collected using ...
