The adaptive value of secondary males in the polygynous multi‐level society of hamadryas baboons
OBJECTIVES: One-male social systems are usually characterized by polygyny and reproductive exclusion by a single resident male. Sometimes, however, secondary males join these groups, and this may carry fitness costs and/or benefits to the resident male. In hamadryas baboons (Papio hamadryas hamadryas), which live in one-male units (OMUs) with female defense polygyny within a multi-level social system, secondary "follower" males often reside in OM…
The rise and fall of leader males in a multi‐level society: Takeovers and tenures of male hamadryas baboons
As one means to maximize access to females, males of some species are intolerant of other males in social units, resulting in female defense polygyny, a mating system in which one male monopolizes mating access to as many females as he can for as long as possible. In such a system, the length of a male's tenure and the number of females he is able to acquire are important predictors of his reproductive success. Hamadryas baboons differ from many …
Alternative routes to the leader male role in a multi‐level society: Follower vs. solitary male strategies and outcomes in hamadryas baboons
The nested one‐male units (OMUs) of the hamadryas baboon are part of a complex social system in which “leader” males achieve near exclusive mating access by forcibly herding females into permanent consortships. Within this multi‐level social system (troops, bands, clans and OMUs) are two types of prereproductive males—the follower and solitary male—whose different trajectories converge on the leader role. Here we compare OMU formation strategies …
Female “dispersal” in hamadryas baboons: Transfer among social units in a multilevel society
Unlike most cercopithecines, hamadryas baboons ( Papio hamadryas hamadryas ) are characterized by female‐biased dispersal. To clarify this pattern within the context of their hierarchical social system (comprising one‐male units, clans, bands, and troops), we report here 7 years of data on female transfers among social units in wild hamadryas baboons in Ethiopia. Female tenure in one‐male units (OMUs) ranged from 1 to 2,556 days ( N = 208) and su…
