COMPARISON OF EMOTIONAL RESPONSES IN MONKEYS WITH RHINAL CORTEX OR AMYGDALA LESIONS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Four emotionally arousing stimuli were used to probe the behavior of monkeys with bilateral ablations of the entorhinal and perirhinal cortex. The animals’ behavioral changes were then contrasted with those observed earlier (Meunier et al., 1999) in ...

Bushmeat consumption frequency and preferences among rural households in a West African savanna landscape: Implications for food security and conservation

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The drivers of consumer demand for bushmeat are relatively well studied in tropical forest systems, but much less so in savanna areas. This is important because differing ecological and socio‐economic conditions lead to different factors affecting the relationship between local communities and their natural resources.

The laminar organization of the lateral geniculate body and the striate cortex in the squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus)

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 1983
The organization of the projection from the lateral geniculate body to the striate cortex in the squirrel monkey has been re-examined using the anterograde and retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and wheat germ agglutinin conjugated to ...

Differences in mammal community response to highway construction across different levels of human land use

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Worldwide, transportation agencies have been involved in road mitigation efforts to reduce road mortality and promote connectivity of endangered species. Baseline data on how mammals respond to highway construction, however, are rarely collected in road mitigation and monitoring studies, including in the USA.

Functionally referential signals: a promising paradigm whose time has passed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Finding the evolutionary origins of human language in the communication systems of our closest living relatives has, for the last several decades, been a major goal of many in the field of animal communication generally and primate communication ...

Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.

Sperm proteome and sperm parameters of captive Amazon squirrel monkeys (Saimiri collinsi Osgood, 1916) during the non-fatted and fatted condition

open access: yesTheriogenology Wild
The aims of this work were (1) to characterize the proteome profile of Saimiri collinsi (Amazon squirrel monkey) sperm, and (2) to evaluate if there are meaningful differences in sperm quality and sperm protein landscape during the non-fatted and fatted ...

Perceptual tuning influences rule generalization: Testing humans with monkey-tailored stimuli

open access: yes, 2019
Comparative research investigating how nonhuman animals generalize patterns of auditory stimuli often uses sequences of human speech syllables and reports limited generalization abilities in animals.

Neurotransmitter profile of saccadic omnipause neurons in nucleus raphe interpositus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Saccadic omnipause neurons (OPNs) are essential for the generation of saccadic eye movements. In primates OPNs are located near the midline within the nucleus raphe interpositus (rip).

Ontological polyglossia: the art of communicating in opacity* Polyglossie ontologique : l'art de communiquer dans l'opacité

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
What do communicating with a baby, with an animal, and with an ancestor have in common? In all three cases, people engage in opaque communication that is far from the standard psycholinguistic model of transparent interaction based on shared intentionality.
