Hunting is one of the greatest threats to nonhuman primates worldwide. Despite Madagascar’s status as a primate mega-diversity country, a critical lack of information on the hunting of lemurs at the national scale persists. Here, we synthesize the current state of knowledge of the annual rates of household-level lemur hunting near ten protected areas, representing most ecoregions in Madagascar. We...... hiện toàn bộ
Tính ưu thế trong tương tác nam giới ở loài baboon: Một góc nhìn thay thế Dịch bởi AI Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 175-202 - 1982
S. C. Strum
Dữ liệu về loài baboon đã tạo ra cả những khái niệm thường liên quan đến hệ thống ưu thế nam giới ở các loài linh trưởng và các thử nghiệm về ý nghĩa của chúng. Mô hình ưu tiên tiếp cận đã được sử dụng để dự đoán mối quan hệ giữa đẳng cấp ưu thế và việc tiếp cận tài nguyên. Mặc dù mối tương quan giữa hai yếu tố này, hoặc giữa đẳng cấp với các biện pháp thành công sinh sản, đã thay đổi giữa các loà...... hiện toàn bộ

Vegetation Thresholds for the Occurrence and Dispersal of Microcebus griseorufus in Southwestern MadagascarSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 38 - Trang 1138-1153 - 2017

Primate populations are declining the world over due to anthropogenic threats, including habitat loss and degradation. This raises the important question of how much habitat degradation a species can cope with. Habitat degradation is pronounced in Madagascar, where most of the human population depends on the direct exploitation of natural resources. We aimed to identify the response of Microcebus ...... hiện toàn bộ
Citizen’s Perceptions of Urban Black Howler Monkeys (Alouatta pigra) in the City of Palenque (Mexico): A Case Study to Aid Policy DecisionsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 44 - Trang 357-376 - 2022
Montserrat Franquesa-Soler, Denise Spaan, Alma Hernández-Jaramillo, Ellen Andresen
The outcomes of human-wildlife interactions depend largely on how animals are perceived by humans. All American primates are forest specialists, but due to habitat loss they are increasingly using urban areas. However, relatively little is known about people’s perceptions of urban primates in American cities. Our goals were to (1) determine the locations used by black howler monkeys (Alouatta pigr...... hiện toàn bộ
Diet and Feeding Ecology of the Critically Endangered San Martín Titi Monkey (Plecturocebus oenanthe) in PeruSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - - Trang 1-23 - 2021
Anneke M. DeLuycker
One of the largest threats facing primate populations is habitat loss, with typically concomitant results of fragmentation, isolation, alteration, and degradation. Many primates exhibit behavioral and dietary flexibility to cope with these changing environments. Titi monkeys (family Pitheciidae, subfamily Callicebinae) are small-bodied, diurnal platyrrhines inhabiting a wide range of altitudinal a...... hiện toàn bộ
Mother-infant relationships in Vervet Monkeys: Response to new adult malesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 8 - Trang 351-366 - 1987
L. A. Fairbanks, M. T. McGuire
The reaction of mothers to replacement of breeding adult males was studied in two captive groups of vervet monkeys. Mother-infant behavior for 15 infants born in the season following the introduction of new males was compared to mother-infant behavior for 35 infants born with adult males that had been resident in the group for more than a year. The mothers responded to the presence of new males by...... hiện toàn bộ
Dietary Variability of Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, UgandaSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 25 - Trang 1043-1072 - 2004

Data on intraspecific dietary variability has important implications for understanding flexibility in foraging behavior, habitat utilization, population dynamics, and social behavior and may also assist in conservation efforts. We compared food availability and diet of a group of mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) at a high altitude site and 2 groups at a low altitude site in Bwindi Imp...... hiện toàn bộ
Habitat, diet, and activity patterns of free-ranging woolly spider monkeys (Brachyteles arachnoides E. Geoffroy 1806)Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 491-514 - 1984
Katharine Milton
Results of a 10-month study of the ecology and behavior of free- ranging woolly spider monkeys (Brachyteles arachnoides)in Brazil show that these animals are strongly folivorous. Leaf-eating accounted for more than 50% of the total feeding time in all samples but one and accounted for more than 80% of the total feeding time in three samples. Mature foliage was routinely ea...... hiện toàn bộ
