  • The purpose of this study is to better understand the grooming patterns of captive hamadryas baboons (Papio hamadryas hamadryas) and geladas (Theropithecus gelada) within the context of kin selection theory, which posits that kin will interact, especially in altruistic ways, more than non-kin.

  • There have been observations from certain baboon populations that suggest a correlation between infant survival and group size: e.g. infants are likelier to survive in larger groups. (wikipedia.org)
  • This study hypothesizes that grooming patterns in hamadryas baboons and geladas can be explained by the patterns of philopatry, dispersal, social system and bonding that are seen in wild populations. (blogspot.com)
  • Indeed, because infant primates commonly exhibit a more diverse posturo-locomotor repertoire than adults, the developmental processes of locomotion represent an important source of variation upon which natural selection may act. (anthropogeny.org)
  • In addition, this study also hypothesizes that there is a correlation between grooming frequency and temperature. (blogspot.com)
  • There is a positive correlation between grooming frequency and temperature in hamadryas baboons but a negative correlation in geladas. (blogspot.com)

  • However, in Tuanan, migrants peered mostly at other adult males and local immatures. (frontiersin.org)
  • Our results show that while the basic temporal aspects of the bipedal walking gait (i.e., duty factor, dimensionless frequency, and hind lag) do not change during development, the baboon is able to significantly improve the coordination pattern between hind limbs. (anthropogeny.org)
  • Particular distributions of food, water (bottom-up factors) and predators (top-down factors), in conjunction with the physiological demands of individuals differing in body sizes or reproductive states, will determine the frequency and magnitude of competitive and cooperative interactions that occur.

  • The body weight normalized total body clearance of inulin was similar in pigs and baboons despite differences in absolute clearances. (bvsalud.org)
  • Foals exhibited different microbiome composition to sub-adults and adults, most likely related to differences in diet. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Significant relationships between the fundamental frequency of calls and their number or duration were found for some phases of the sequence, but the direction of these relationships differed between particular phases. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Phase-specific trade-offs also appear to occur between fundamental frequency and call number or duration, potentially reflecting that different phases of the sequence are associated with distinct types of information, linked in different ways to call pitch. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Solitary primate systems, sometimes referred to as neighbourhood systems, occur when an adult male's territory overlaps with one (or more) adult female's territory and individuals conduct activities (most often foraging or offspring care) independently from one another. (wikipedia.org)
