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

American 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

Withdraw-to-eat movements of the Platyrrhine Sapajus libidinosus to the changing affordance of tubers with eating [PDF]

Animal Behavior and Cognition
The evolution of hand ability in primates is staged, with the visual control of hand shaping likely originating in Platyrrhine primates, members of a monophyletic primate suborder whose stem group diverged from catarrhines about 40 million years ago ...

ATLANTIC ‐ PRIMATES : a dataset of communities and occurrences of primates in the Atlantic Forests of South America [PDF]

, 2018
Primates play an important role in ecosystem functioning and offer critical insights into human evolution, biology, behavior, and emerging infectious diseases. There are 26 primate species in the Atlantic Forests of South America, 19 of them endemic.

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

American 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.

Faecal Virome Analysis of Wild Animals from Brazil

Viruses, 2019
The Brazilian Cerrado fauna shows very wide diversity and can be a potential viral reservoir. Therefore, the animal’s susceptibility to some virus can serve as early warning signs of potential human virus diseases.

Vertebrate Predation and Tool-Aided Capture of Prey by Savannah Wild Capuchin Monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus)

International Journal of Primatology, 2022
Abstract Vertebrate predation was a vital behavior during human evolution. Some non-human primates, such as baboons and chimpanzees, frequently hunt and consume vertebrate prey. Capuchin monkeys (Cebus and Sapajus) are omnivorous neotropical primates, and although vertebrate prey is not their primary food source, they hunt and consume those ...

You are Not Welcome: Social Exchanges between Female Spider Monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi) [PDF]

Group living leads to competition for food between group members. Two types of intragroup food competition may occur: scramble competition, in which all group members use the same resource, such that feeding opportunities are equal for everyone; and ...

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

Evolutionary 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.
