    Extractions: Experiments at The State University of New York Health Science Center For over 30 years, researchers have forced monkeys to undergo maternal separation or deprivation in order to "model" such human conditions as depression, alcoholism, aggression, and maternal-infant bonding. Three major critiques by Michael Giannelli, Martin Stephens, and Brandon Reines have challenged the scientific underpinnings of this work. An exhaustive review of the literature has not revealed a single attempt by the monkey researchers to address criticisms raised by these scholars. Expanding on the work of Giannelli, Stephens, and Reines, this report focuses on the research of Leonard Rosenblum, which involves exposing monkeys to drug-maternal deprivation combinations in order to "model" human panic disorder. Like other maternal deprivation projects, this research is fundamentally flawed.

    Extractions: P rimates are remarkably recent animals. Most species of living things had become extinct long before the first monkeys and their prosimian ancestors evolved. While the Earth is about 4.55 billion years old and the first life dates to at least 3.5 billion years ago, the first primates did not appear until around 60 million years ago. That was after the dinosaurs had become extinct. 65,000,000 years ago present T ransitional primate-like creatures were evolving by the end of the Mesozoic Era (ca. 65 million years ago). At that time, the world was very different from today. The continents were in other locations and they had somewhat different shapes. North America was still connected to Europe but not to South America. India was not yet part of Asia but heading towards it. Australia was close to Antarctica. Most land masses had warm tropical or subtropical climates. end of the Mesozoic Era T he flora and fauna at the end of the Mesozoic Era would have seemed alien since most of the plants and animals that are familiar to us had not yet evolved. Large reptiles were beginning to be replaced by mammals as the dominant large land animals. Among the mammals, there were a few archaic egg-layers (

    Extractions: Menace d'extinction Cri d’alarme : de nombreuses espèces de primates, nos plus proches cousins animaux, sont menacées d’extinction. A travers le monde, près du quart des espèces de primates est menacé d’extinction. Ce groupe, qui comprend les singes (dont les grands singes anthropoïdes) et les lémuriens constitue notre plus proche parenté dans les règne animal. Actuellement, 88 des espèces répertoriées sont considérées comme en danger; 50 de plus sont dans un situation critique et pourraient disparaître d’ici quelques décennies, victimes de la destruction d’habitat, du braconnage et… de la guerre. Les bonobos, ces chimpanzés nains dont le comportement Sommes-nous les seuls a parler C'est entendu, les grands singes ne « parlent » pas comme nous : ils ne disposent pas de l'appareil vocal adéquat. Qui plus est, leur cerveau, trois fois plus petit que le nôtre, ne leur permet pas de dépasser l'intelligence d'un enfant de trois ans. « Mais les recherches auprès des bonobos, des singes dont il ne resterait que quelques milliers d'individus dans les forêts de l'est du Congo, sont tout de même troublantes », dit Stewart Shanker, professeur de philosophie et de psychologie à l'université de York, qui participe à des expériences avec ces singes pour mieux comprendre l'autisme et l'aphasie chez les enfants.

40. Polyandry In Primates
    Cooperative polyandry among primates.  
    http://www-personal.umich.edu/~phyl/anthro/polyandry.html
    
    Extractions: Definition: "Groups in which two or more males mate with a single female during a single breeding season and collaborate to raise her offspring" Cooperative polyandry seems to fly in the face of expectations in two ways- First of all, males are expected to raise their reproductive success by gaining access to females. Females don't maximize reproductive success by getting more males! Secondly, it looks like altruism- one of the males is taking care of offspring not related to him! Why is he being a sucker Cooperative polyandry is pretty rare for these reasons. It occurs in scattered animals- some raptors like hawks and eagles have polyandrous mating systems. Also african hunting dogs. In primates, humans in Asia with traditional cultures have polyandrous mating systems, usually for much the same reasons as callitrichids do, who are the only non-human polyandrous primates. Only a few have been studied; common marmoset, cottontop tamarin, golden tamarin, saddleback tamarin. Characteristics of callitrichids They're the smallest of anthropoid primates; all under 1kg. Generally territorial. Diet is mixed- fruit and small prey items. Some eat gums, especially the marmosets who are specialized gummivores. Another important feature is that they produce twins- about 80% of births are twins. They're only primates who twin routinely.
