The prospect of rising in rank is key to long-term stability in Tibetan macaque society
One of the most fundamental questions in behavioural biology is why societies can persist for a long period of time. While researchers in animal behaviour have been hindered by a lack of an aggregate measure (such as social mobility) to quantify the ...

Behavioral Contagion in Wild Ecuadorian White‐Fronted Capuchins (Cebus aequatorialis)
White‐fronted capuchins exhibit scratching contagion, but neither the characteristics of the trigger, or of the partner's (sex, age class, or centrality), or of the dyad (combination of sex, combination of age class, or social bond) seem to modulate the likelihood of contagion.

Mitochondrial Genome and Nuclear Markers Provide New Insight into the Evolutionary History of Macaques. [PDF]
The evolutionary history of macaques, genus Macaca, has been under debate due to the short times of divergence. In this study, maternal, paternal, and biparental genetic systems were applied to infer phylogenetic relationships among macaques and to trace

Developmental Changes in Vocalizations of Tibetan Macaques \u3ci\u3e(Macaca thibetana)\u3c/i\u3e [PDF]
Little information exists on the types of vocalizations produced by Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana). Data were collected on the vocalizations of a group of 41 provisioned Tibetan macaques of both sexes and all ages at a tourist site at Mt. Huangshan,

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

The Vocal Repertoire of Tibetan Macaques (Macaca thibetana) and Congeneric Comparisons [PDF]
Macaques are the most geographically widespread and behaviorally diverse non-human primate genus and are ideal for teasing apart the effects of phylogenetic, social, and ecological factors on the evolution of communication. I explored vocal complexity and made congeneric comparisons between Tibetan macaques and other species by identifying homologous ...

In group-living animals, males’ fighting abilities were usually mediated via dominance rank to sort males into a queue to access fertile females, especially in non-human primates. However, the correlation between male reproductive success and consortship,

Intervalles de référence hémotologiques chez le singe cynomolgus (Macaca fascicularis) avec l'analyseur Sysmex KX-21 [PDF]
Les singes cynomolgus, primates phyllogénétiquement proches de l’homme, sont fréquemment utilisés en recherche biomédicale. Le but de cette étude a été d’établir des intervalles de référence hématologiques a posteriori pour Macaca fascicularis ...

Abstract Primates, 69% of which are threatened with extinction, are the third most specious order of mammals. We used primates as model taxa to examine the umbrella effects of primates on ecosystem services and the protection of other vertebrates and seed plants in Yunnan Province, China.
