Searching for the forest ghosts: Group counts and polyspecific associations of the endangered Rungwecebus kipunji in the Udzungwa Mountains, Tanzania
The IUCN-Endangered kipunji ( Rungwecebus kipunji ) is one of Africa’s rarest primates, restricted to two isolated populations in Tanzania. The Udzungwa population is enigmatic, confined to a small area within a large, old-growth forest and consists of fewer than 100 individuals. Apart from baseline data from 2006, ecological knowledge remains scant. We present new data from three standardized sweep censuses conducted between 2013 and 2024 in Ndu…
Associations and interactions between prokaryotes and other gut biota in non-human primates
The influence of gut microbiota on vertebrate health, development, growth, and physiology is increasingly evident. Considerable research has concentrated on Primates, not only because many non-human species have long acted as laboratory models to better understand human health, but also to improve our knowledge of the ecology of this mammalian Order with the highest proportion of endangered wild taxa. While bacteria have been the primary focus, o…
Impending extinction crisis of the world’s primates: Why primates matter
Impending extinction of the world’s primates due to human activities; immediate global attention is needed to reverse the trend.
Leaf swallowing and parasite expulsion in Khao Yai white‐handed gibbons ( Hylobates lar ), the first report in an Asian ape species
Leaf swallowing behavior, known as a form of self-medication for the control of nematode and tapeworm infection, occurs widely in all the African great apes (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii, P. t. troglodytes, P. t. verus, P. t. vellerosus, Pan paniscus, Gorilla gorilla graueri), except mountain gorillas. It is also reported to occur in a similar context across a wide array of other animal taxa including, domestic dogs, wolves, brown bears, and ci…
Optimizing field and analytical procedures for estimating densities of arboreal and threatened primates in tropical rainforest
The application of distance sampling to primate density estimation is challenging and susceptible to estimation biases, mainly due to the difficulties of properly accounting for variation in species' detectability and of accurately sampling the spread of the social groups. We apply a hierarchical distance sampling approach to primate data, to account for a comprehensive set of environmental covariates of both detectability and abundance, and we p…
Modeling Primate Abundance in Complex Landscapes: A Case Study From the Udzungwa Mountains of Tanzania
Density Estimation of the Endangered Udzungwa Red Colobus (Procolobus gordonorum) and Other Arboreal Primates in the Udzungwa Mountains Using Systematic Distance Sampling
Extra‐pair paternity confirmed in wild white‐handed gibbons
Knowledge of the genetic mating system of animal species is essential for our understanding of the evolution of social systems and individual reproductive strategies. In recent years, genetic methods have uncovered an unexpected diversity of paternal genetic contributions across diverse animal social mating systems, but particularly in pair-living species. In most pair-living birds, for example, genetic and behavioral observations have confirmed …
Effects of social status and stress on patterns of gastrointestinal parasitism in wild white‐handed gibbons ( Hylobates lar )
Although gibbons (family Hylobatidae) are typically monogamous, polyandrous groups occur regularly. Stress associated with elevated intragroup competition among males in polyandrous groups may increase susceptibility to infectious disease. To better understand this interplay, as well as to provide the first comprehensive assessment of parasitism in free‐ranging gibbons, we characterized the richness of gastrointestinal parasites and examined thei…
