Role of Nonbehavioral Factors in Adjusting Long Bone Diaphyseal Structure in Free-ranging Pan troglodytes
Limb bones deform during locomotion and can resist the deformations by adjusting their shapes. For example, a tubular-shaped diaphysis best resists variably-oriented deformations. As behavioral profiles change during adulthood, patterns of bone deformation may exhibit age trends. Habitat characteristics, e.g., annual rainfall, tree density, and elevation changes, may influence bone deformations by eliciting individual components of behavioral rep…

The evolving female: A Life-History Perspective
"A human female is born, lives her life, and dies within the space of a few decades, but the shape of her life has been strongly influenced by 50 million years of primate evolution and more than 100 million years of mammalian evolution. How the individual female plays out the stages of her life -- from infancy, through the reproductive period, to old age -- and how these stages have been formed by a long evolutionary process, is the theme of this…

Apparent age‐related bone loss among adult female Gombe chimpanzees
Apparent age‐related bone loss among adult females was observed in a skeletal sample derived from the free‐ranging Gombe chimpanzee population of Tanzania. Photon absorptiometric and computed tomographic bone scans indicated that, as in humans, bone was lost from the endosteal surface, but, in contrast to humans, more bone was lost from cortical sites than from cancellous sites. The etiology of this bone loss may be related to a number of factors…
