The special role of male Cebus monkeys in predation avoidance and its effect on group composition
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
A comparison of the two capuchin monkeys with the ecologically similar Southeast Asian Macaca fascicularis suggests that the high predation risk outside the group may also have caused the unusual male career profile in capuchins, which have a long tenure of dominants and a very long potential lifespan.
