Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary Response of Chimpanzees and Cercopithecines to Seasonal Variation in Fruit Abundance. II. Macronutrients
TL;DR: The chimpanzee diet is of higher quality, particularly of lower fiber content, than expected on the basis of their body size, compared with the diets of the 4 frugivores, considering the substantial differences in body size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimators of Fruit Abundance of Tropical Trees1
Colin A. Chapman,Lauren J. Chapman,Richard Wangham,Kevin D. Hunt,Daniel L. Gebo,Leah Gardner +5 more
TL;DR: Diameter at breast height (DBH) was the most consistently accurate method and exhibited low levels of interobserver variability, while crown volume was neither precise nor accurate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Standardized descriptions of primate locomotor and postural modes
Kevin D. Hunt,John G. H. Cant,Daniel L. Gebo,Michael D. Rose,Suzanne E. Walker,Dionisios Youlatos +5 more
TL;DR: 32 primate positional modes are defined, divided more finely into 52 postural sub-modes and 74 locomotor sub-Modes, and a nomenclature is recommended that is not dedicated to or derived from any one taxonomic subset of the primates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Demography, female life history, and reproductive profiles among the chimpanzees of Mahale

TL;DR: The chimpanzees of the Mahale Mountains National Park, Tanzania, have been studied for more than 34 yr on the basis of individual identification and standardized attendance records to derive demographic data on disease, death, and female transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Positional behavior of Pan troglodytes in the Mahale Mountains and Gombe Stream National Parks, Tanzania.
TL;DR: Although no significant differences were found between sympatric baboons and chimpanzees in the proportion of time spent in the terminal branches, or in the mean diameter of weight-bearing strata, chimpanzees exhibited evidence of a terminal branch adaptation in that they, unlike baboons, used postures among smaller supporting strata different from those used among larger supports.
