Conservation detection dogs: A critical review of efficacy and methodology. [PDF]
Conservation detection dogs (CDD) can be effective and applied to possibly limitless conservation scenarios but moving forward researchers must provide more consistent and detailed methodologies so that comparisons can be conducted, results are more easily replicated and progress can be made in standardising CDD work. This review aims to summarise what

Peer learning and cultural evolution
Abstract In this article, we integrate cultural evolutionary theory with empirical research from developmental psychology, cultural anthropology, and primatology to explore the role of peer learning in the development of complex instrumental skills and behavioral norms. We show that instrumental imitation, contingent teaching, generative collaboration,

Linking Conservation Goals to the Conservation Education Outcomes and Assessment Abstract Who do we aim to educate with primate conservation education programs (PCEPs)? In a commentary published in a recent AJP, Annette Lanjouw suggested that many efforts to “educate” habitat‐country communities can be neocolonial in their approaches.

Abstract Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana var. mangostana) is a popular tropical fruit, yet many aspects of its biology and evolutionary history are little known. Its origin remains contentious, although recent findings suggest G. mangostana L. var. malaccensis (Hook. f.) Nazre (synonym: G. malaccensis Hook. f.) as the sole progenitor.

Two New World primate species, Sajapus apella and Callithrix jacchus, significantly behaviorally responded to olfactory enrichment to varying degrees of change (i.e., influence) and odor conditions. This comparative investigation uncovers the possibility for olfactory stimulus to be used as a type of beneficial enrichment for captive primates ...

The dynamics of social cohesion in response to simulated intergroup conflict in banded mongooses
The conflict–cohesion hypothesis predicts that exposure to intergroup conflict should lead to increased social cohesion to improve group success or resilience in future conflicts. We investigated this question by simulating intergroup encounters, and control trials, in wild banded mongooses (Mungos mungo) and measuring social behavior before, during ...

Agonistic intergroup interactions can cause individual costs such as physical injuries, increased physiological stress, and disrupted intragroup social relationships. Therefore, individuals should employ behavioral strategies to minimize the cost associated with aggressive intergroup encounters (IGEs).

Human-made structures are often deadly to wildlife. Power lines from electric poles can cause serious injury and even death of wildlife via electrocution, especially of arboreal primate species that can easily access power lines. Here, we reported three cases of wild ‘Endangered’ Javan Gibbons Hylobates moloch electrocuted by power lines along a road ...
