http://primate_behaviour.homestead.com/

Extractions: We identify three traits that are transmitted in humans in a Mendelian fashion: Aggression (A), Perfectionism (P) and Narcissism (N). We believe that the genetic loci corresponding to these traits will soon be identified. Thus, DNA analyses in the near future will allow one to trace personality traits and even personality types in ancestral hominid lineages. The trait of perfectionism is not a basic drive of ambition and is not associated with a rage reaction. Rather it is a mediator of the unbridled drives of aggression and/or narcissism. The stereotypic acts associated with the trait of perfectionism are obsessiveness, compulsiveness, repetition, and the maintenance of neatness, order and symmetry. It is concluded that certain autistic and schizophrenic individuals are those in whom the two components of ambition, i.e., aggression and narcissism, have been suppressed by genetic or environmental factors, either congenitally, in childhood, or after maturity, thus revealing in the individual a primitive state of perfectionism.

Extractions: MEET THE CARE BABOONS! by Gien Elsas On the banks of the Olifants River (Elephant River) in South Africa's Northern Province lives a remarkable woman who started an even more remarkable animal adventure several years ago which has led to the founding of C.A.R.E. (Center for Animal Rehabilitation and Education). Rita Miljo did not always live on the banks of this river in what must be one of the warmest places in South Africa. She was once a career woman who lived and worked in Johannesburg and who literally used to fly places when the mood took her, in her own small aeroplane. On one of her trips to Namibia she met Bobby and her life, as she knew it, changed. Bobby was a young female chacma baboon who was kept at an army base as a mascot. She was in an unhappy state and was not getting the care she deserved. Before she knew it, Rita heard herself say that she would take Bobby and look after her. Bobby came home with Rita who soon realized how intelligent this indigenous primate was. Other people heard of Rita and Bobby and, before she knew it, people were phoning her for advice on how to rear orphaned baboons and several landed on her doorstep for fostering. After observing them and watching how inbred some of their behavior was, Rita soon realized that she would be able to rehabilitate these animals and decided to move to Phalaborwa where the baboons would be closer to nature and would be able to see wild baboons, hippos, elephants, predators, crocodiles and other animals and get used to them as they would be common sights in the wild.

http://www.zoomdinosaurs.com/subjects/mammal/monkey/Baboonprintout.shtml

Extractions: The Baboon is the largest type of monkey. It is a noisy, ferocious, ground-dwelling Old World monkey that lives in groups called troops. Troops vary in size from a few individuals to up to several hundred members. Distribution and Range : Baboons live in savannas , open woods, grasslands , rocky areas, and dry lands, in Africa and on the Arabian Peninsula. These intelligent primates are endangered due to loss of habitat. Anatomy : Baboons have a large, muscular body with gray to brown fur. The face and buttocks are hairless and sometimes brightly colored. The female has duller colors than the male. The largest species of baboons grow to be about 35 inches (90 cm) long. Baboons weigh from 30 to 100 pounds (14 to 45 kg). Males are larger than females and have large, pointed canine teeth. Baboons have cheek pouches and a dog-like face. Diet : Baboons are omnivores (they eat both plants and meat). They eat grasses, roots

Extractions: Rhesus Macaque From: South-central Asia Climate: cold winters and cool summers Size: 63 cm (25 in) long Weight: Rhesus Monkeys (macaque) are found throughout India and Nepal, eastern Afghanistan, and northeastern China and Indochina. They are partly migratory, sometimes ascending the Himalayas to an altitude of about 2500 m (about 8200 ft) in summer to find some releif from the heat. An adult rhesus has a stoutly built body, with a tail the length as their body. The skin hangs in loose folds about the neck, breast, and abdomen. The silky hair is yellowish brown, the naked skin is brown to yellowish-brown, and the large posterior callosities are bright red. The monkeys live in troops of 8 to 180 individuals. These monkeys are held sacred by the Hindus. Because of their similar physiology to humans, we often use them for scientific experiments. In fact, the Rh factor in blood (the positive or negative) is named after the rhesus monkeys used to discover it. (Source: encarta.msn.com

http://mdma.net/toxicity/ricaurte.html

Extractions: in Sept 2003 George A. Ricaurte, Jie Yuan, George Hatzidimitriou, Branden J. Cord, Una D. McCann The prevailing view is that the popular recreational drug (±)3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, or "ecstasy") is a selective serotonin neurotoxin in animals and possibly in humans. Nonhuman primates exposed to several sequential doses of MDMA, a regimen modeled after one used by humans, developed severe brain dopaminergic neurotoxicity, in addition to less pronounced serotonergic neurotoxicity. MDMA neurotoxicity was associated with increased vulnerability to motor dysfunction secondary to dopamine depletion. These results have implications for mechanisms of MDMA neurotoxicity and suggest that recreational MDMA users may unwittingly be putting themselves at risk, either as young adults or later in life, for developing neuropsychiatric disorders related to brain dopamine and/or serotonin deficiency.
