Influence of rainfall on sleeping site choice by a group of anubis baboons ( Papio anubis )
For diurnal nonhuman primates, shifting among different sleeping sites may provide multiple benefits such as better protection from predators, reduced risk of parasitic infection, and closer proximity to spatially and temporally heterogeneous food and water. This last benefit may be particularly important in sleeping site selection by primates living in savanna‐woodlands where rainfall is more limited and more seasonally pronounced than in rainfo…
Capture, immobilization, and Global Positioning System collaring of olive baboons ( Papio anubis ) and vervets ( Chlorocebus pygerythrus )
As the value of Global Positioning System (GPS) technology in addressing primatological questions becomes more obvious, more studies will include capturing and collaring primates, with concomitant increased risk of adverse consequences to primate subjects. Here we detail our experiences in capturing, immobilizing, and placing GPS collars on six olive baboons ( Papio anubis ) in four groups and 12 vervet monkeys ( Chlorocebus pygerythrus ) in five…
The role of sleeping sites in the predator‐prey dynamics of leopards and olive baboons
Predation is widely recognized as an important selective pressure on prey animals such as baboons (Papio spp.), which face high leopard (Panthera pardus) predation risk, particularly at night. Baboons regularly sleep on cliff faces and in trees at night, ostensibly to avoid such predators. Despite retreating to such "refuges," baboons are most often killed by leopards at or near their sleeping sites. Because of the challenges of studying nocturna…
GPS-identified vulnerabilities of savannah-woodland primates to leopard predation and their implications for early hominins
GPS‐identified, low‐level nocturnal activity of vervets ( Chlorocebus pygerythrus ) and olive baboons ( Papio anubis ) in Laikipia, Kenya
OBJECTIVES: Except for owl monkeys (Aotus spp.), all anthropoid primates are considered strictly diurnal. Recent studies leveraging new technologies have shown, however, that some diurnal anthropoids also engage in nocturnal activity. Here we examine the extent to which vervets (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) and olive baboons (Papio anubis) are active at night. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We deployed GPS collars with tri-axial accelerometer data loggers on…

Primate communities
An understanding of the fundamental causes of the structure of primate communities is important for studies of primate evolutionary history, primate behavioral ecology, and development of conservation strategies. Research into these structuring factors has benefited from new perspectives such as consideration of primate phylogenetic history, metacommunities, and interactions with predators and nonprimate competitors. This review presents the unde…
