Why social interaction isn’t always a good thing for primates, especially for individuals with a fever.
Little is known about what physiological mechanisms African primates use to cope with environmental and social changes such as climate change and human encroachment on their habitat.
We studied 8,000 primate teeth and finally confirmed that humans are not the only living primate to suffer from cavities. But there are interesting differences.
Differences between male and female skulls in some species of gibbon may shed light on how our extinct ancestors lived.
Less attractive endangered species don’t tend to receive the same public attention as their more beautiful counterparts: new studies show how we might help change that.
New research calls into question the validity of ‘Dunbar’s number’.
The virus is always present in nature and when circumstances allow, it may jump from one species to another.
How scientists discovered the ‘Popa langur’ was a separate species of just 200 monkeys.
Without adequate information, we can’t prioritise efforts and funding to best protect our primate relatives.
The ‘good’ side of our nature is much more deep-rooted than the ‘evil’ side.
