Self‐awareness and the emergence of mind in primates

Gordon G. Gallup · 1 Jan 1982

To date humans, chimpanzees, and orangutans are the only species which have been shown capable of recognizing themselves in mirrors. Several species of macaques have now been provided with years of continuous exposure to mirrors, but they still persist in reacting to their reflection as if they were seeing other monkeys. Even gibbons (apes) and…

Why primate models matter

Kimberley A. Phillips, Karen L. Bales, John P. Capitanio et al. · 10 Apr 2014

Research involving nonhuman primates (NHPs) has played a vital role in many of the medical and scientific advances of the past century. NHPs are used because of their similarity to humans in physiology, neuroanatomy, reproduction, development, cognition, and social complexity-yet it is these very similarities that make the use of NHPs in biomedical research a…

Wild capuchin monkeys (<i>Cebus libidinosus</i>) use anvils and stone pounding tools

We conducted an exploratory investigation in an area where nut-cracking by wild capuchin monkeys is common knowledge among local residents. In addition to observing male and female capuchin monkeys using stones to pound open nuts on stone "anvils," we surveyed the surrounding area and found physical evidence that monkeys cracked nuts on rock outcrops, boulders,…

Habitat alteration and the conservation of African primates: Case study of Kibale National Park, Uganda

Colin A. Chapman, Joanna E. Lambert · 1 Mar 2000

Tropical forests and the animals they support are being threatened by accelerating rates of forest conversion and degradation. In a continually fluctuating sociopolitical world, it is often impossible to protect areas from such conversion until the political environment is suitable to pursue conservation goals, by which time, the forests have often been converted to other…

Behavior patterns of Southern Bearded Sakis (<i>Chiropotes satanas</i>) in the fragmented landscape of Eastern Brazilian Amazonia

Suleima Socorro Bastos Silva, Stephen F. Ferrari · 10 Oct 2008

The endangered but poorly studied southern bearded saki, Chiropotes satanas, faces extremes of habitat fragmentation throughout its geographic range in eastern Amazonia. This article focuses on the behavior of the members of two groups--a large one (30-34 members) in continuous forest (home range=69 ha) and a much smaller one (7 members) on a 17-ha man-made…
