Most dwell in tropical forests. The smallest living primate is the pygmy marmoset, which weighs around 70 g; the largest is the gorilla, weighing up to around 175 kg. Primates radiated in arboreal habitats, and many of the characteristics by which we recognize them today (shortened rostrum and forwardly directed orbits, associated with stereoscopic vision; opposable hallux and pollex ; unfused and highly mobile radius and ulna in the forelimb and tibia and fibula in the hind) probably arose as adaptations for life in the trees or are primitive traits that were retained for the same reason. Several species, including our own, have left the trees for life on the ground; nevertheless, we retain many of these features. Primates are usually recognized based on a suite of primitive characteristics of the skull, teeth, and limbs. Some of these are listed above, including the separate and well-developed radius and ulna in the forearm and tibia and fibula in the hindleg. Others include pentadactyl feet and presence of a clavicle. Additional characteristics (not necessarily unique to primates) include first toe with a

6. Welcome To Primarily Primates, INC. San Antonio, Texas sanctuary specializing in chimpanzees, orangutans, new world and old world monkeys. Offers a history of the facility, press clippings, details of rescued animals, and a virtual tour. http://www.primarilyprimates.org/

Primarily Primates, Inc., is a unique non-profit animal protection organization that provides sanctuary, rehabilitation, lifetime care and shelter to various non-native species of primates, birds, mammals, and reptiles that otherwise would continue to suffer from abuse, neglect, or be killed as unwanted surplus. Founded in 1978, Primarily Primates has grown from a facility caring for three monkeys to its present community of more than 600 primates, 150 birds, and various mammals, including a small number of wallabies, horses, bears, and black leopards. As you explore our online sanctuary, you will have the opportunity to meet many of these animals and hear their stories, take a virtual tour of our grounds, read news and information about us, and find out how we can be contacted. "My only hope is that one day all chimpanzees in research facilities will be retired and no more chimpanzees ever used again." Dr. Jane Goodall, Scientific Director, The Jane Goodall Institute Primarily Primates, Incorporated could use your support.

Every time someone scrapes you With a sharp word, or maybe two, Just imagine you're at the rainbow's end And how the magic will bring a mend. It's just a matter of looking yonder, At the rainbow, with total wonder; Knowing the storm and rain of life is gone. But, the shadow of the rainbow lingers on. It's a covenant from God, for no more flood. For our transgressions, He shed His blood. So if we try to love, then hearts will mend, As long as we look to the promise of the rainbow's end. My Primate means more to me, than anything, She's the wish I'd once dreamt, She is an Angel, sent by God, To ease my heart's lament. She's my little angel, my prize, The gleam within my eyes, I love her more than anything, And I hate it when she cries. I love my little monkey with all my heart, She's an Angel from above, She has given me more than I can give, She taught me how to "love". The baby primates range from $3,500 & up, depending on which primate. We have babies now available. We are licensed with the USDA. The primate comes with a health certificate. We deliver or families are welcome to pick up the primate. We do not SHIP!!. We school the new owners for up to 2 hours to make sure they understand everything about taking care of there new baby.

Monkeys are one of the most intelligent animals on earth. You would think a monkey would make a great pet, but this is not the case. Dogs and cats have evolved for thousands of years to be a domestic pet to man. Monkeys are wild. They will never adapt to being in a home. It is very expensive to keep a primate happy and healthy. A monkey that doesn't bite is extremely rare and their teeth are sharp. Monkeys are impulsive, unpredictable and excitable. They can never be toilet trained. Monkeys should not be kept singly. They are social animals and socializing with you is not enough. They will become lonely and become sick or die. So are you sure you want a monkey? While this is an article about monkeys in general, when specifications are mentioned the size of monkey that is being referred to be the size of a Capuchin, Squirrel or Spider Monkey. DO NOT KEEP MONKEYS UNLESS YOU CAN FULLY SATISFY THEIR NEEDS.

18. Evolution Of Social Behavior In Primates: Personality Traits Theory based on Mendelian genetics predicts that personality traits can be traced in ancestral hominid lineages. Reference to nonhuman primates. A. M. Benis, Sc.D., M.D. http://primate_behaviour.homestead.com/

Evolution of Social Behavior in Primates: Personality Traits A Genetic Approach to Behavior in Ancestral Hominids eBook now available Revised 2004 Psychological Dimensions Press, New York, 1985 504 pages, 16 figures, 48 plates. Illustrations are from On the Genetic Origins of the Human Character Why is this gorilla smiling? (a) He is happy. (b) He has just witnessed an amusing event, or (c) He has the genetic character trait of narcissism. [answer below] Aggression, Perfectionism and Narcissism As Mendelian Genetic Traits in Primates Summary 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. In addition, we show that the traits A, P and N can be identified in non-human primates. The evolutionary implications of this theory are evident. NPA Theory of Discrete Character Traits Our interpretation of the three traits in humans is as follows: Aggression (A) Narcissism (N) Perfectionism (P) 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.

19. Of Pigs, Primates, And Plagues: Xenotransplantation Critique Critique of xenotransplantation. http://www.mrmcmed.org/pigs.html

A Layperson's Guide to the Problems With Animal-to-Human Organ Transplants Alix Fano, M.A. Murry J. Cohen, M.D. Marjorie Cramer, M.D., F.A.C.S. Ray Greek, M.D. Stephen R. Kaufman, M.D. Executive Summary 1. Introduction 2.Organ Xenotransplantation's Track Record: 100% Failure There have been some 55 animal-to-human whole organ transplants attempted since 1906. All have proven unsuccessful, resulting in the suffering and death of all patients and donor animals. The thousands of cross-species experiments (between goats, rats and chickens, rats and hamsters, cats and dogs, pigs and primates) performed since 1906, and continuing today, have not provided reliable information about what would happen to human xenograft recipients. Xenotransplantation is a dangerous and unproven technology. 3. Xenotransplantation Is Expensive Xenotransplantation is riskier and promises to be even more expensive than human-to-human transplantation ($250,000 per operation in 1995, not including the hidden costs of breeding, housing, feeding, medicating, testing, transporting, rendering, and disposing of the waste and remains of herds of transgenic animals). Institute of Medicine figures from 1996 reveal that xenotransplant costs for all patients who need organs could reach $20.3 billion. These costs are beyond the means of the majority of Americans and an already overburdened health care system. If ever successful, the technology would, at best, benefit a small minority of patients (100,000) while dramatically driving up health care costs for all.
