Grooming-at-a-distance by exchanging calls in non-human primates.
The 'social bonding hypothesis' predicts that, in large social groups, functions of gestural grooming should be partially transferred to vocal interactions. Hence, vocal exchanges would have evolved in primates to play the role of grooming-at-a-distance in order to facilitate the maintenance of social cohesion. However, there are few empirical studies testing this hypothesis. To address this po...
متن کاملLong-distance calls in Neotropical primates.
Long-distance calls are widespread among primates. Several studies concentrate on such calls in just one or in few species, while few studies have treated more general trends within the order. The common features that usually characterize these vocalizations are related to long-distance propagation of sounds. The proposed functions of primate long-distance calls can be divided into extragroup a...
متن کاملFunction and Intention in the Calls of Non-Human Primates
Many of the vocalizations produced by non-human primates are functionally semantic, in the sense that they denote objects and events in the external world. Moreover, at least some monkey species appear to assess and compare calls on the basis of their meanings. In their social interactions, non-human primates also use their calls in ways that are functionally analogous to the ways that humans u...

متن کاملNon-human Primates
Introduction Less than 1⁄4 of one percent of all lab animals needed in the U.S. are non-human primates. Approximately 30 different species are studied by the research community.1 Many historic scientific breakthroughs, such as the discovery of the Rh factor and the development of a live polio virus vaccine were achieved through research with non-human primates. Today they are considered extreme...
