A Year in the Bones: Investigating Bone Resorption Across a Reproductive Year in Wild Female Assamese Macaques

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reproduction places considerable metabolic demands on females, particularly during pregnancy and lactation, when calcium homeostasis and bone metabolism are challenged. Urinary C‐terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX‐I) offers a useful non‐invasive marker to assess bone resorption.

Utterance evolution: the road to generative, combinatorial communicators

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2427-2447, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Language has long been considered uniquely complex in the animal kingdom; however, animal research over the last decade has begun to challenge some long‐standing premises about exactly which language capacities are uniquely human. The task of resolving why and how complex communication systems evolve, particularly human language, has ...

Sociability Under Anthropogenic Change: From Individual Behaviour to Population‐Level Consequences

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Our review synthesises empirical and theoretical research on how anthropogenic environmental change reshapes animal social behaviour from individuals to populations. We use sociability as an individual‐level lens, distinguishing context‐dependent expression from repeatable interindividual differences and linking both to social relationships, network ...
