Abstract We present data on life history parameters from a long‐term study of vervet monkeys in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. Estimates are presented age at first conception for females and natal dispersal males, along with probability survival to adulthood infants born during study, female reproductive life‐span, output (including lifetime success subset females), inter‐birth interval (IBI) duration. also assess effect maternal infant length IBI. then go compare our population those two...

Abstract In the animal kingdom, conspicuous colors are often used for inter- and intra-sexual communication. Even though primates most colorful mammalian taxon, many questions, including what potential information color signals communicate to social partners, not fully understood.
