“Juggling” Behavior in Wild Hainan Gibbons, a New Finding in Nonhuman Primates [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 AbstractMany species of primates use tools and manipulate objects. Environmental objects, such as sticks and branches, are used in locomotion, display, conflict, nesting and foraging. This study presents observations regarding endangered male Hainan gibbons (Nomascus hainanus) selecting sticks and then throwing and catching them repeatedly. This act of

Diverse grouping and mating strategies in the Critically Endangered Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus). [PDF]
Primates, 2022 AbstractUnderstanding flexibility in the social structure and mating strategies of the world’s last remaining population (35 individuals) of wild Hainan gibbons (Nomascus hainanus) is critical for developing effective management plans to aid in their population recovery. Three of the five remaining Hainan gibbon groups (A, B, and C) currently live in a

Non-specific alarm calls trigger mobbing behavior in Hainan gibbons (Nomascus hainanus). [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 AbstractAlarm calls are important defensive behaviors. Here, we report the acoustic spectrum characteristics of alarm calls produced by Hainan gibbons (Nomascus hainanus) inhabiting Bawangling National Nature Reserve in Hainan, China. Analysis of call data collected from 2002–2014 shows that alarm calls are emitted by all family group members, except ...
