Local Ecological Knowledge Reveals the Distribution of Cryptic Nocturnal Wildlife 局域生态知识揭示隐秘夜行野生动物的分布

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Many nocturnal animals are difficult to study because they are rarely seen, including nocturnal primates, galagos and pottos, in West Africa. Working with over 600 people in 52 villages in southern Guinea‐Bissau, we found that communities frequently recognized galagos by their red eyeshine and distinctive calls, while pottos were not known.

Can squirrel monkeys learn an ABnA grammar? A re-evaluation of Ravignani et al. (2013) [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Ravignani et al. (2013) habituated squirrel monkeys to sound sequences conforming to an ABnA grammar (n = 1, 2, 3), then tested them for their reactions to novel grammatical and non-grammatical sequences.

Taxon, Arboreality, Sex, and Season—Factors Influencing Gastrointestinal Parasite Occurrence in Zoo‐Housed Non‐Human Primates

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The emergence of anthelminthic resistance is a well‐documented phenomenon in livestock and companion animals. Given the scarcity of new antiparasitic drugs, the implementation of effective, holistic anthelminthic control strategies is critical to preserving the efficacy of existing treatments.

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.

Cortisol metabolism in the Bolivian squirrel monkey (Saimiri boliviensis boliviensis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
New World squirrel monkeys (Saimiri spp.) have high circulating cortisol levels but normal electrolytes and blood pressures. The goal of the present study was to gain insight into adaptive mechanisms used by Bolivian squirrel monkeys to minimize the ...

Visual Exploratory Behavior in the Squirrel Monkey (Saimiri Sciureus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
3 male squirrel monkeys were tested for visual preferences among another monkey, a toy snake, or an empty cage. The sight of another monkey was preferred to either of the other stimuli.

Inhibition of kynurenine 3‐monooxygenase (KMO) reduces fentanyl and sucrose intake and relapse‐like behaviour in rats

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Opioid use disorder, particularly involving fentanyl, poses major challenges due to high relapse rates and limited effectiveness of pharmacotherapies. The kynurenine pathway has emerged as a target for addiction treatment through its modulation of glutamatergic and dopaminergic neurotransmission.
