Maximum longevity and juvenile mortality in zoo‐housed mangabeys
The international studbooks of two Lophocebus mangabey species were analyzed. Sex, as well as traits of the mother, serve as proxies for the maximum longevity of individuals. Also, intercontinental differences in cumulative survival rates seem to exist for the captive populations of these mangabeys; underlying effects remain to be discovered.
