Abstract Socioecological models assume that primates adapt their social behavior to ecological conditions, and predict food availability distribution, predation risk of infanticide by males affect patterns organization, structure mating system primates. However, adaptability variation may be constrained conservative adaptations phylogenetic inertia. The comparative study closely related species can help identify the relative contribution genetic determinants primate systems. We compared...
In most group-living animals, a dominance hierarchy reduces the costs of competition for limited resources. Dominance ranks may reflect prior attributes, such as body size, related to fighting ability or history self-reinforcing effects winning and losing conflict (the winner-loser effect), both. As in sexually dimorphic species, where males are larger than females, assumed be dominant over females. effect, computational model DomWorld has shown that despite female’s lower initial ability,...
This work was aimed at identifying the effectiveness of two interventions applied to a group eight kennelled police dogs. Interventions consisted access lawn area (350 m2) and “toy” (a 30 cm jute rag roll, hanging from kennel ceiling), both available for 15 min day, four days in row. We collected behavioural data faecal samples cortisol metabolites evaluation before, during after interventions. Faecal levels were significantly reduced (Friedman, X2(3) = 12.450; p 0.006) second round...
Abstract Stereotypies are frequently associated with sub-optimal captive environments and used as welfare indicators. However, susceptibility to stereotypy can vary across individuals of the same group. As such, identifying which more susceptible this behaviour may be helpful in managing issue. We have investigated sex-age class semi-captive capuchin monkeys (Sapajus spp) is stereotypic behaviours evaluated whether or not they also affected by social factors that typically influence increase...
Yellow fever (YF) is a viral disease whose transmission involves non-human primates (NHP), mosquitoes, and humans. Between 2016 2018 occurred the largest YF outbreak in last 100 years Brazil. We analyzed epidemiologic profile geographic distribution of epizootics described most frequent histopathological findings NHP that died during state Espírito Santo. consider 487 notifications registered at State Health Department from January 2017 to July 2020. Throughout state, 51 (65.4%)...
