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.

The ocular surface microbiome of rhesus macaques
Background The ocular surface microbiota (OSM) is important for eye health, and variations in OSM composition have been associated with multiple diseases in humans. Studies of OSM-disease dynamics in humans are confounded by lifestyle factors.

A New Experimental Protocol for Assessing Hominoid Assisted Arboreal Bipedalism
A new experimental protocol for investigating arboreal bipedalism in hominoids was successfully used by all available age and sex classes of chimpanzees in the case study. This protocol identifies two forms of arboreal bipedalism: forward facing and sideways, and allows for the collection of gait parameter data for future comparative studies.

Primate Swallowing Is Powered by Both Rotation and Contraction of Suprahyoid Muscles
ABSTRACT Objectives Swallowing biomechanics in primates and other mammals is poorly understood, and the effect of hyoid descent on swallowing biomechanics lacks experimental interrogation. In macaques, which share similar swallowing kinematics with humans, the base of the tongue and the food bolus are hypothesized to be driven into the oropharynx by a ...

Picture recognition in animals and in humans : a review [PDF]
The question of object–picture recognition has received relatively little attention in both human and comparative psychology; a paradoxical situation given the important use of image technology (e.g. slides, digitised pictures) made by neuroscientists in

Volumetric data reveal a late maturation of areas 36r and 36c compared to areas 35, TF, and TH, as well as a tendency for superficial layers in areas 36r and 36c to mature earlier than the deep layers. Neuronal soma size exhibits a transient increase at 6 months of age in most subdivisions.

This study shows that young goats outperform sheep in the reversed‐reward contingency task, which is a cognitive test requiring both inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility. The results highlight the importance of cognitive flexibility when solving this type of task, and suggest that the differences between both species may reflect social and ...
