The function of colouration in animals includes concealment, communication and signaling, such as the use aposematism a warning signal. Aposematism is unusual mammals, exceptions help us to understand its ecology evolution. Javan slow loris highly territorial venomous mammal that has distinctive facial mask monochromatic vision. To if they advertise their venom conspecifics or predators with different visual systems, we studied population Java, Indonesia. Using ImageJ, selected colours from...
The trade in primates as pets is a global enterprise and access to the Internet has increased, so too of live online. While quantifying primate physical markets relatively straightforward, limited insights have been made into via Internet. Here we followed three-pronged approach estimate prevalence ease purchasing online countries with different socioeconomic characteristics. We first conducted literature review, which found that Malaysia, Thailand, USA, Ukraine, South Africa, Russia stood...
Primate species have been increasingly threatened by legal and illegal trade in China, mainly for biomedical research or as pets traditional medicine, yet most reports on from China regard international trade. To assess a proxy amount of national primate trades, we quantified the number native featuring unique web news 2000 to 2017, including accuracy their identification, location where they were confiscated rescued, condition upon rescue. measure temporal trends across these categories,...
Indonesia is at the epicenter of Asian Songbird Crisis, i.e., recognition that cage bird trade has a devastating impact on numerous imperiled species in Asia. The Javan pied starling Gracupica jalla, only last five years recognized as distinct from starlings mainland Southeast Asia, been declared extinct wild 2021. Up until 1980s, it used to be one most common open countryside birds islands Java and Bali, Indonesia. From early 2000s onwards, commercially bred meet demand domestic cagebird...
Facial musculature in mammals underlies mastication and nonverbal communicative facial displays. Our understanding of primate expression comes primarily from haplorrhines (monkeys apes), while our strepsirrhine (lemurs lorises) remains incomplete. We examined the muscles six specimens three Nycticebus species (Nycticebus coucang, javanicus, menagensis) using traditional dissection methodology novel three-dimensional scanning to produce a detailed muscle map, compared these results another...
Immature mammals require opportunities to develop skills that will affect their competitive abilities and reproductive success as adults. One way these benefits may be achieved is through play behavior. While in developing use of tusks, antlers, other weapons have been linked play, venomous animals has rarely studied. Javan slow lorises (Nycticebus javanicus) venom aid intraspecific competition, yet whether individuals any behavioral mechanisms the ability remains unclear. From April 2012...
In mammals, colouration patterns are often related to concealment, intraspecific communication, including aposematic signals, and physiological adaptations. Slow lorises (Nycticebus spp.) arboreal primates native Southeast Asia that display stark colour contrast, highly territorial, regularly enter torpor, notably one of only seven mammal taxa possess venom. All slow loris species a contrasting stripe runs cranial-caudally along the median sagittal plane dorsum. We examine whether these...
Volunteer tourists, often foreigners, collect essential data in wildlife conservation projects worldwide. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, international tourism activities reduced drastically, forcing many shut down. Using a nine-year (2013–2021) case study Indonesia, we examine how local and foreign tourists construct meaning of their volunteer experiences light COVID-19. We aim highlight potential benefits face travel limitations posed by COVID-19, show an example can overcome challenges...
