Death of a one-armed blackback male due to severe injuries in a group of wild western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) in Moukalaba-Doudou National Park, Gabon
Does kinship with the silverback matter? Intragroup social relationships of immature wild western lowland gorillas after social upheaval
In primates living in one-male groups, the sole resident male is often an important social partner for group immatures. For such groups, however, replacement of the male and subsequent disruptions of their relationships are almost inevitable. Here, we described social relationships of immature wild western lowland gorillas within a habituated group, where two natal and eight immigrant immatures lived with the resident silverback. We recorded 5 m …
Hand preference in unimanual and bimanual coordinated tasks in wild western lowland gorillas ( Gorilla gorilla gorilla ) feeding on African ginger (Zingiberaceae)
OBJECTIVES: Bimanual coordinated behaviors are critical for detecting robust individual hand preference in nonhuman primates but are particularly challenging to observe in the wild. This study focuses on spontaneous feeding behavior on African ginger (Aframomum sp. and Renealmia sp.), which involves a unimanual task (reaching and pulling out a ginger stem) and a bimanual coordinated task (extracting pith from a ginger stem) by wild western lowlan…
Seasonal Change in Diet and Habitat Use in Wild Mandrills (Mandrillus sphinx)
Female Reproductive Seasonality and Male Influxes in Wild Mandrills (Mandrillus sphinx)
Male genetic structure and paternity in western lowland gorillas ( Gorilla gorilla gorilla )
The male dispersal patterns of western lowland gorillas (WLGs, Gorilla gorilla gorilla ) are not well understood. To determine whether most silverbacks stay close to their relatives, we analyzed autosomal and Y‐chromosomal microsatellites (STRs) in wild WLGs at Moukalaba, Gabon. We obtained STR genotypes for 38 individuals, including eight silverbacks and 12 adult females in an approximately 40 km 2 area. Among them, 20 individuals were members o…
