Grooming Reciprocity in Female Tibetan Macaques Macaca Thibetana
American Journal of Primatology, 2012Grooming among nonhuman primates is widespread and may represent an important service commodity that is exchanged within a biological marketplace. In this study, using focal animal sampling methods, we recorded grooming relationships among 12 adult females in a free‐ranging group of Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana) at Huangshan, China, to determine ...

Triadic Positions of Tibetan Macaques Huddling at a Sleeping Site
International Journal of Primatology, 2003We studied huddling of Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana) at a sleeping site in Huangshan, China, during the mating and birth seasons. Tibetan macaques in a free-ranging group made physical contact with each other and formed huddling groups on the ledge of a steep cliff at night.

Male-infant-male interactions in Tibetan macaques
Primates, 1996Event-sampling and scans were used for collecting data on male-infant-male triadic interactions, and their effects on member spacing respectively in a group ofMacaca thibetana at Mt. Emei in 1989. The group was partially provisioned by human visitors in seasons other than winter, and could be observed closely.

Ecological and Social Pressures Influence Diel Activity Patterns in Wild Tibetan Macaques
American Journal of PrimatologyABSTRACTThe nighttime behavior of diurnal species is a “black box.” Although diurnal animals spend approximately half their lives in the dark, research has, for too long, relied on the simplifying assumption that what we can't observe isn't important.

Supportive and tolerant relationships among male Tibetan macaques at Huangshan, China
Behaviour, 2007Tibetan macaque males at Huangshan ( Macaca thibetana huangshanensis ) display highly skewed mating success and highly asymmetric patterns of aggression, but also high levels of tolerance. We examined affiliation, tolerance and agonistic support to test the hypothesis that increased tolerance in otherwise despotic males may occur when high-ranking ...
