A group of 38 free ranging crested mangabeys in the Tana River Primate Reserve was studied over a 6-week period for a total
of 209.5 hr and behavioral comparisons made to a captive group of sooty mangabeys. Although quantitative comparisons between
these two mangabey species are not possible, the present data suggest that these geographically separated mangabeys share
several behavioral similarities. Copulatory behavior in both species involved a pattern of female darting and female vocalizing
following the mount by the male. Several similarities in agonistic behavior also existed: 1) The victim often returned or
stayed within 1 m of the aggressor following an agonistic episode; 2) retaliation in which the victim first fled or avoided
the aggressor, then subsequently, chased or lunged at the aggressor, typically while screaming; and 3) frequent redirection
of aggression by the victim following an agonistic episode. A dominance rank reversal occurred between the two adult male
crested mangabeys with no severe wounding. The rank reversal seemed to be related to two subsequent behaviors which included
infant carriage by the deposed alpha in the presence of the new alpha male and female demonstrations of extreme protectiveness
of their infants in the presence of the new alpha male. Both of these behaviors have been reported in the sooty mangabey group. 相似文献

We studied the social and foraging behavior of two captive groups of sooty mangabeys under two different spatial food situations.
These food conditions were clumped (food was placed in a box) and dispersed (food was dispersed over the entire enclosure).
In each group five adult females and two adult males were observed. As a criterion for food competition, individual differences
in the relative food intake were used. Adult female mangabeys had a linear, stable, and unidirectional dominance hierarchy.
Access to food was rank dependent among females only under clumped food distribution, as current models of the evolution of
primate social systems predict. However, feeding success appeared to be mediated not by female but by male agonistic behavior
toward females. High-ranking females received relatively less aggression from males and could, therefore, stay and feed longer
in the feeding area. Male tolerance of higher-ranking females seems to mediate female feeding success under restricted food
resources. The establishment of a special relationship with a high-ranking male might, therefore, be a strategy to get better
access to food. This study demonstrates that female competition for access to food should not be analyzed separately from
male influences on females and suggests that a more integral role of males in socioecological models of the evolution of primate
social systems should be considered. 相似文献

Environmental enrichment is expected to increase the well-being of animals. Changes in well-being can be measured by variations in behavioral patterns. This study reports on behavioral changes induced, in arboreal monkeys, by progressively increasing the number of perches, from none to five, in an “experimental cage.” A cage equipped with five perches was used as the control cage. The behaviors of a group of seven gray-cheeked mangabeys in the control cage and in the “experimental” cage were compared. A total deprivation of perches yielded an increase in aggressive behaviors and locomotion, and a decrease in cohesiveness. Placing perches progressively in the experimental cage restored the level of all the variables to levels found in the control cage. This restoration to control levels actually occurred only when the number of perches in the experimental cage was close or equal to that in the control cage. Therefore perches constitute a necessary feature of an adequate environment for mangabeys. We suggest that this restoration is a consequence of providing appropriate structure of the utilizable space for the monkeys. This structure might increase the control and the predictability that monkeys should have over social events. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Through the accumulation of adaptive mutations, HIV-2 originated from SIVsm. To identify these evolutionary changes, a humanized mouse model recapitulated the process that likely enabled this cross-species transmission event. Various adaptive mutations arose, as well as increased virulence and CD4+ T-cell decline as the virus was passaged in humanized mice. 相似文献

Behavioral observations were made on a habituated group of grey-cheeked mangabeys (Lophocebus albigena) in the Dja Reserve, Cameroon, using 5-min scan sampling periods at 15-min intervals. On two occasions male mangabeys captured
and fed on mammalian prey, a squirrel and a bushbaby. Although grey-cheeked mangabeys have been studied at several sites,
these are the first observations of carnivory by them. 相似文献

We studied factors influencing intergroup transfer in male mangabeys (Lophocebus albigena) inhabiting 7 social groups in Kibale National Park over a 2-year period. The sample consisted of 40 males including 36 that we captured and marked during the study. Intergroup transfers are movements between groups that culminate in either long-term (dispersal) or short-term (visits) residency by males in the new groups. Both dispersers and visitors had a greater tendency to move into groups that contained higher numbers of estrous females than their prior group. Using averages of weekly group counts, we found a significant positive relationship between the number of estrous females in a group and the number of adult males in a group, but not between the number of nonestrous females and the number of adult males in the 7 study groups. There is no evidence that dispersal events were released by aggression. For a sample of males followed 2 mo before emigration, aggression did not increase just before emigration. Results suggest that spatiotemporal availability of estrous females is a major proximate factor influencing intergroup transfer in mangabeys. The results also suggest that dispersing males are more sensitive to relative numbers of estrous females than to measures of female availability such as operational sex ratio, socionomic ratio, and the number of excess females that take into account the potential for male-male competition. 相似文献

The facial threats of ten captive golden-bellied mangabeys (Cercocebus galeritus chrysogaster) were categorized by object threatened. Adult males threatened more than did females except when the object was a nonhuman
primate in a neighboring cage. Juvenile mangabeys threatened mainly in play within their own enclosures. Keepers and observers
did not differ in frequency of being threatened by the mangabeys. Adult female mangabeys seemed more concerned with neighboring
cages of nonhuman primates than were the juveniles and the males. Human visitors to the enclosures received by far the most
threats of any targets, certainly far more than the observers and keepers. They were treated like interlopers. Keepers were
treated like familiar conspecifics, observers like familiar neighbors. The implications of these findings for captive management
of primates and for observational methods in behavioral primatology are discussed. 相似文献
