Hormonal changes in northern white-cheeked gibbons (Nomascus leucogenys) after the death of a group member
Linking glucocorticoid variations to monthly and daily behavior in a wild endangered neotropical primate
Identifying the factors swaying physiological stress levels in wild animals can help depict how they cope with environmental and social stressors, shedding light on their feeding ecology, behavioral plasticity, and adaptability. Here, we used noninvasive methods to explore the link between glucocorticoid levels and behavior in an endangered neotropical primate facing habitat fragmentation pressure, the black lion tamarin ( Leontopithecus chrysopy…
Anogenital distance as a measure of male competitive ability in Rwenzori Angolan colobus
Anogenital distance (AGD) is positively correlated to fetal androgen exposure and developmental masculinization in mammals. Independent of overall body size, AGD shows a strong positive correlation with male fertility and in rodents, AGD is a good indicator of male competitive ability and is associated with female choice. We hypothesized that AGD will also predict male competitive ability in non‐human primates. To test this, we measured AGD nonin…
The relative effects of reproductive condition, stress, and seasonality on patterns of parasitism in wild female black howler monkeys ( Alouatta pigra )
Parasitic infections in wildlife are shaped by host-related traits including individual reproductive condition. It has been argued that female primates are more susceptible to infectious diseases during pregnancy due to short-term changes in immune function that result in reduced ability to combat infections. Likewise, lactation, which is the most energetically expensive state, may affect immunity and infection risk due to tradeoffs between milk …
Validation of an Enzyme Immunoassay for Measuring Fecal Cortisol Metabolites of Bearded (Sapajus libidinosus) and Black (Sapajus nigritus) Capuchins
Determination of Fecal Glucocorticoid Metabolites to Evaluate Stress Response in Alouatta pigra
Comparison of different enzymeimmunoassays for assessment of adrenocortical activity in primates based on fecal analysis
Most studies published to date that used fecal glucocorticoid measurements to assess adrenocortical activity in primate (and many nonprimate) species applied a specific cortisol or corticosterone assay. However, since these native glucocorticoids are virtually absent in the feces of most vertebrates, including primates, the validity of this approach has recently been questioned. Therefore, the overall aim of the present study was to assess the va…
