Primates and disability: Behavioral flexibility and implications for resilience to environmental change

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 1, January 2025.
A photo of Nau, a Japanese macaque who was born with one eye, and the key highlights from the review article. Abstract Congenital malformations, conditions, injuries, and illness can lead to long‐term physical impairment and disability in nonhuman primates. How individual primates change their behaviors flexibly to compensate for their disabilities can

“How handy was early hominin ‘know‐how’?” An experimental approach exploring efficient early stone tool use

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 185, Issue 3, November 2024.
Abstract Objectives The appearance of early lithic industries has been associated with the gradual development of unique biomechanical and cognitive abilities in hominins, including human‐like precision grasping and basic learning and/or communicating capacities.

Indução do Uso de Ferramentas como Enriquecimento Ambiental para Macacos-prego (Sapajus libidinosus) Cativos

open access: yesPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa
RESUMO Testamos o efeito de um aparato que pudesse induzir o uso de ferramentas no comportamento de seis macacos-prego cativos. Utilizamos “animal focal” para o tempo gasto em estados comportamentais gerais e estados indicativos de estresse ...

Three thousand years of wild capuchin stone tool use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The human archaeological record changes over time. Finding such change in other animals requires similar evidence, namely, a long-term sequence of material culture.

Behavioral and hormonal changes following the continuous administration of testosterone in females in capuchin monkey adult females (Sapajus Libidinosus)

open access: yesRevista Ciências da Saúde CEUMA
Although the role of estradiol in female sexual behavior is well documented, some studies have suggested a joint action of this steroid with testosterone in modulating female sexual behavior.

Ontogenetic biomechanics of tufted (Sapajus) and untufted (Cebus) capuchin mandibles

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 185, Issue 2, October 2024.
Abstract Objectives Cortical bone geometry is commonly used to investigate biomechanical properties of primate mandibles. However, the ontogeny of these properties is less understood. Here we investigate changes in cortical bone cross‐sectional properties throughout capuchin ontogeny and compare captive versus wild, semi‐provisioned groups.

Terrestriality across the primate order: A review and analysis of ground use in primates

open access: yesEvolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 33, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Terrestriality is relatively rare in the predominantly arboreal primate order. How frequently, and when, terrestriality appears in primate evolution, and the factors that influence this behavior, are not well understood. To investigate this, we compiled data describing terrestriality in 515 extant nonhuman primate taxa.

Determinação de valores de referência para os testes oftálmicos de rotina em macacos-prego (Sapajus libidinosus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Notwithstanding its broad geographic distribution and the large number of specimens held in captivity, basic studies on the ocular physiology of capuchin monkeys of the Sapajus libidinosus species are still incipient.

Trypanosoma cruzi transmission in the wild and its most important reservoir hosts in Brazil

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Trypanosoma cruzi (Kinetoplastea: Trypanosomatidae) infects all tissues of its hosts, which along with humans, include hundreds of mammalian species in the Americas. The epidemiology of T.

Teaching varies with task complexity in wild chimpanzees

open access: yes, 2020
Understanding social influences on how apes acquire tool behaviors can help us model the evolution of culture and technology in humans. Humans scaffold novice tool skills with diverse strategies, including the transfer of tools between individuals ...
