Relationship Value, Emotion, and Uncertainty Shape Conflict−Resolution Communication in a Wild Primate

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1562, Issue 1, August 2026.
Geladas combine vocal−visual signals and tactile patterns to resolve conflicts. Reconciliation is rapid, mainly aggressor‐initiated, and shaped by relationship value, risk, emotion, and audience context. Post‐conflict sequences increase in complexity with stronger bonds, greater distress, dominance asymmetries, and genetic unrelatedness. These patterns

Narrating Science, Shaping Selves: Oral Stories Latine Caregivers Share With Their Preschoolers as Pathways to Science Learning and Identity

Applied Cognitive Psychology, Volume 40, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT We studied the oral stories 226 U.S. Latine caregivers (most Mexican‐born, earning under $50,000 annually) shared with their children (Mage = 51.81 months) when prompted to tell a science‐ or nature‐related story. Inductive qualitative coding and analyses revealed personal experience stories—reminiscing, caregiver memories, and fictionalized ...

First Non‐Invasive Monitoring of Fecal Steroids in Greater Caribbean Manatees (Trichechus manatus manatus)

Zoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 435-443, July/August 2026.
This study established the first fecal hormonal reference values (P4/E2) for the Greater Caribbean manatee. Using non‐invasive ELISA, the authors found no significant differences between mature and immature females, highlighting that long‐term monitoring and ultrasounds are essential to fully understand their complex reproductive cycles.

Ripple Effects: Social Turmoil Following Infant Kidnapping Attempts in Wild Geladas

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 7, Page 485-497, July 2026.
Graphical abstract illustrating the social consequences of infant kidnapping in wild geladas (Theropithecus gelada). The study monitors a 28‐day period divided into a 14‐day pre‐kidnapping phase and a 14‐day post‐kidnapping phase. ABSTRACT Infant kidnapping is an extreme social disruption reported in some primate species, yet its consequences on social
