Across mammals, fertility and offspring survival are often lowest at the beginning and end of females' reproductive careers. However, extrinsic drivers of reproductive success-including infanticide by males-could stochastically obscure these expected age-related trends. Here, we modelled reproductive ageing trajectories in two cercopithecine primates that experience high rates of male infanticide: the chacma baboon () and the gelada ().

While female capital offences have repeatedly caused a stir since the beginning of the modern era at the latest, female violent crime has remained a marginal phenomenon in statistical observations for a long time.

A Unique Case of Adoption in Golden Snub-Nosed Monkeys.

Animals (Basel)

October 2024

Shaanxi Key Laboratory for Animal Conservation, Northwest University, Xi'an 710069, China.

Adoption among nonhuman primates (hereafter primates) has been widely reported, particularly in chimpanzees, renowned for their higher intelligence and well-developed cognition. In contrast to adoption in other Old World monkeys, this case of adoption in golden snub-nosed monkeys () involves two infants associated with three units characterized by distinct social structures and reproductive functions. Consequently, this case extends beyond traditional hypotheses on allomaternal care and adoption-such as enhancing the fitness of adoptive mothers, fostering maternal behaviors, and improving fitness through social and individual interactions-to necessitate an association with the complex social structure characterized by hierarchical, multilevel composition, akin to human society, and intense sexual selection that frequently results in infanticide.
