42. About SNPRC Primates
    as they are a more arboreal (or aboveground) dwelling species than the baboons or chimpanzees. Marmosets and tamarins are small, South American primates.  
    http://www.snprc.org/aboutprimates.html
    
    Extractions: Primates SNPRC is home to the world's largest baboon colony , presently comprising about 3,700 animals. Most of the baboons at the facility are olive baboons (Papio hamadryas anubis), but there are also some hamadryas baboons (Papio hamadryas hamadryas), red baboons (Papio hamadryas papio) and yellow baboons (Papio hamadryas cynocephalus). SNPRC also has a pedigreed baboon colony of about 700 individuals, whose family ancestral lines are well-documented. These baboons live in groups with 15-30 females, their infants, and one male so that the sire is known. Infant baboons are black when they are born, turning the brownish color of the adults when they are about 6 months old. Male and female baboons are very protective of youngsters in their group, and females are especially eager to touch newborn infants. They may follow the mother and groom her to get a chance to touch the infant. At the other end of the age spectrum is our Pedigreed Geriatric Baboon Colony. This colony contains around 300 animals, all greater than 16 years of age. Of these, over 240 have been genotyped for the 330 microsatellite markers used in our gene mapping studies; eventually, all the animals will be genotyped. These animals are a unique and precious resource for investigating genetic contributions to the physiology of aging, including understanding of osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and menopause.

    http://williamcalvin.com/teaching/bonobo.htm
    
    Extractions: Bonobos (the "Left Bank Chimps") also known as pygmy chimpanzees , were the last ape species to be identified, some three centuries after the other apes were known to science. That's because they only live in one small and shrinking place, the swampy equatorial forests of the left bank of the Congo River (common chimps are the Right Bank Chimps, extending from Tanzania and Uganda all of the way to West Africa). Behaviorally, these two Pan species are our closest cousins.

    http://discoveryschool.com/lessonplans/programs/animalsinthewild/orangutansgoril
    
    Extractions: Orangutans’ feet have long curved toes for holding branches and moving from tree to tree. When they are on the ground, they walk on the edges of their feet and not flat on the ground, which makes walking clumsy. They also don’t have thick skin on the backs of their hands like gorillas and chimps to help them walk on their knuckles.

    http://www.fbresearch.org/education/species-sheet-primates.htm
    
    Extractions: Because chimpanzees are uniquely susceptible to hepatitis viruses, they serve as an important study model for a major worldwide health problem. Medical research conducted with chimpanzees over the last three decades has resulted in the virtual eradication of hepatitis acquired through blood transfusions and the implementation of programs to control hepatitis B infections by vaccination. Today, scientists continue to study the changes in the hepatitis C virus that lead to life-time infections that can progress to cirrhosis and liver cancer. These advances represent landmark achievements in the control of viral hepatitis. Researchers are beginning to overcome some of the enormous obstacles in developing a vaccine against malaria, a disease that afflicts millions of people annually. New-world monkeys and chimpanzees are the only species suitable for vaccine evaluation because they are susceptible to the same strains of parasites that cause human malaria. Unlike simpler organisms, the malaria parasite has many chromosomes, thousands of genes and a four-stage life cycle as it passes from mosquitoes to humans and back again. A number of promising vaccines that attack the organisms at every vulnerable point in its life cycle are being tested. Some of these have successfully stimulated protective responses in animals and may soon be ready for human trials.

    Stop the Bushmeat Trade/End Hunting of primates Call for an end to the illegal hunting of chimpanzees, gorillas and other primates in Africa.  
    http://www.apasfa.org/peti/primates.html
    
    Extractions: Stop the Bushmeat Trade/End Hunting of Primates - Call for an end to the illegal hunting of chimpanzees, gorillas and other primates in Africa. The hunting of primates continues to decimate the populations of endangered primates. Final Justice for Suzy - Petition to urge Jefferson County prosecutor, Robert G. Wilkins, to seek full felony charges against Jason Coats in the April shooting death of a chimpanzee in Festus, Missouri. We further urge Mr. Wilkins to not accept a lesser plea but to press fully to ensure that Mr. Coats is incarcerated for his crime. The Great Ape Project Demands the extension of the community of equals to include all great apes:human beings, chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans. Petition to Retire Primates - Requests that the United States enact federal legislation funding a system of sanctuaries for primates no longer being used for experimentation.

52. What Primates Think - National Zoo| FONZ
    As the phrase “monkey see, monkey do” suggests, primates seem quite good Primatologist Jane Goodall reported that infant and juvenile chimpanzees at Gombe  
    http://natzoo.si.edu/Publications/ZooGoer/2002/4/primatethink.cfm
    
    Extractions: by Jill Locantore and Brendan Horton When Koko the gorilla signals in American sign language, “Koko again bad,” after biting a trainer, is she using language to communicate? When the chimpanzee Yeroen acts as though a wound is much more painful than it really is, is he being intentionally deceptive? When Indah the orangutan correctly indicates which pile of grapes is lesser in number, is she doing math? Scientists are hotly debating these questions, but one thing is clear: differences between humans and other primates aren’t as black and white as once was thought. Intelligence appears more a matter of degree, developing gradually throughout the primate lineage rather than sprouting magically when humans first arrived on the scene. Many of the features of our brain that support higher cognitive functions, such as language and mathematics—or at least their precursors—may well be present in ape and monkey brains, and in the brains of long-extinct relatives like the Australopithecines.

    http://www.chimphaven.org/students.htm
    
    Extractions: Students of anthropology, zoology and psychology from local or national universities will be able to study the behavior and socialization of the chimpanzees. Information obtained from such studies will be shared with others through newsletters and peer-reviewed journal articles, so that improvements may be implemented for chimpanzees at other facilities as well. There is a lack of accurate information about chimpanzees available to the general public. Chimp Haven can play an important role by providing educational material and programs to enhance public knowledge about chimpanzees. Information on the intelligence and behavior of chimpanzees will be shared through seminars, classes or workshops for schools and civic groups.

    Extractions: African Ape Study Sites This site gives access to a site bibiliography of African ape study locations including Gombe, Lomako, Karisoke, and Wamba. The link is provided via Jim Moore's home page (he is an Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of California, San Diego). Bushmeat Project The Bushmeat Project has been established to plan and implement an international programme of community based partnerships that will help the people of Cameroon, Congo, Gabon, Central African Republic, and Zaire to develop alternatives to endangered bushmeat. The programme is a long-term effort in which networks of local bushmeat action teams will work to stop the slaughter of great apes and other protected wildlife. Bwindi-Impenetrable Great Ape Project The Bwindi-Impenetrable Great Ape Project (BIGAPE) was begun in 1996 in Bwindi-Impenetrable National Park in southwestern Uganda. The research project's central goal is a better understanding of the ecological relationship between the park's populations of mountain gorillas ( Gorilla gorilla beringei ) and chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii Chimpanzee and Human Communication Institute The Institute cares for a unique family of five chimpanzees who have acquired the signs of American Sign Language (ASL) and use those signs in conversations with each other and their human companions! The chimpanzees' accomplishments are a scientific first and have resulted in a better understanding of ourselves, as well as our place and role in nature. This was achieved by accepting the chimpanzees on their terms, as much as possible, and thus the chimpanzees' needs are given special consideration.
