DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23463
Abstract: The self‐initiated split of a social group, known as fission, is a challenge faced by many group‐living animals. The study of group fission and the social restructuring process in real time provides insights into the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23488
Abstract: Chronic emesis (CE) is a poorly understood condition in human and nonhuman primates that negatively impacts the quality of life. Early identification of risk factors for the development of CE is likely to improve the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23500
Abstract: Glucocorticoids (GCs) are hormones released in response to stressors and can provide insight into an organism's physiological well-being. Experiencing chronic challenges to homeostasis is associated with significant deviations from baseline fecal GCs (fGCs) in many… read more here.

Diverse diets and low‐fiber, low‐tannin foraging preferences: Foraging criteria of Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana) at low altitude in Huangshan
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9338
Abstract: Abstract Nutrient composition and food availability determine food choices and foraging strategies of animals, while altitude and geographical location affect species distribution and food availability. Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana) have sophisticated foraging strategies as the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10764-017-9980-y
Abstract: Urine is involved in sexual communication in New World monkeys and lemurs, but most studies of the role of olfaction in sexual communication in Old World monkeys have focused on vaginal secretions rather than urine.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10764-017-9985-6
Abstract: Anthropogenic disturbances have a detrimental impact on the natural world; the vast expansion of palm oil monocultures is one of the most significant agricultural influences. Primates worldwide consequently have been affected by the loss of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10764-021-00230-6
Abstract: Snake predation is considered an important evolutionary force for primates. Yet, very few studies have documented encounters between primates and snakes in the wild. Here, we provide a preliminary account of how wild moor macaques… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.applanim.2021.105268
Abstract: Abstract When we treat an animal’s welfare as an individual experience, we should consider the possibility that it may be associated with individual differences in personality. We tested for such associations in 44 socially housed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jhevol.2020.102852
Abstract: Wallace's Line demarcates a biogeographical boundary between the Indomalaya and Australasian ecoregions. Most placental mammalian genera, for example, occur to the west of this line, whereas most marsupial genera occur to the east. However, macaque… read more here.
