DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23309
Abstract: Aging across the Primate Order is poorly understood because ages of individuals are often unknown, there is a dearth of aged animals available for study, and because aging is best characterized by longitudinal studies which… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23386
Abstract: An animal's welfare state is directly influenced by the mental state, which is shaped by experiences within the environment throughout the animal's life. For zoo‐housed animals, visitors to the zoo are a large part of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jmor.21501
Abstract: In this study, we investigate the branching patterns of the vascularization and innervation of the primate forelimb by performing detailed dissections of five unembalmed nonhuman primate specimens belonging to five different species, that is, rhesus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00251-018-1057-3
Abstract: Baboons are valuable models for complex human diseases due to their genetic and physiologic similarities to humans. Deep sequencing methods to characterize full-length major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I (MHC-I) alleles in different nonhuman primate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10329-018-00708-7
Abstract: Although play is seen in many species, its evolutionary function is still largely unknown. Several relevant, proposed hypotheses (such as the training for the unexpected, self-assessment, social skills, and dominance hierarchy hypotheses) make predictions about… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10584-020-02776-5
Abstract: Climate change is likely to negatively affect the habitats of non-human primate species. Recent research has identified a near-linear relationship between cumulative CO 2 emissions, and the resulting regional and seasonal temperature increase. Here, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10764-017-9951-3
Abstract: Many species across a range of primate genera, irrespective of dietary and locomotory specializations, can and will incorporate agricultural crops in their diets. However, although there is little doubt that rapid, extensive conversion of natural… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s42991-021-00108-3
Abstract: Habitat use is a dynamic process that varies spatially and temporally. Such variations can be associated with environmental heterogeneity and seasonal fluctuations in food availability. We investigated the habitat use of three sympatric Amazonian primates… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2017.08.018
Abstract: Rapid human-induced conversion and degradation of natural habitats has severely altered patterns of species occupancy and population viability. Primates are highly vulnerable to tropical forest loss and degradation because they are highly arboreal, forest-dependent, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.conb.2021.09.012
Abstract: The gray mouse lemur (Microcebus murinus), one of the world's smallest primates, is thought to share a similar ecological niche and many anatomical traits with early euprimates. As a result, it has been considered a… read more here.
