In a group of rhesus monkeys, feeding tactics of juveniles were studied in a competitive situation in which food presentation had been modified, and where food was supplied in a feeding trough six times a day. Juvenile offspring of high-ranking mothers remained longer in the feeding area gathering f

The age-related incidence of malignant neoplasia was surveyed from a total of 301 necropsy cases of rhesus monkeys ranging in age from 13-37 years performed in the Pathology Service Unit of the Wisconsin Regional Primate Research Center during the past 15 years. All our aged monkeys lived in indoor
Adult male rhesus monkeys lose weight during the breeding season and regain it during the nonbreeding season. The annual pattern of maximum weight gain just prior to the onset of breeding resembles the seasonal "fattening" seen in squirrel monkeys, but the period of weight gain is less discrete. The
This study investigated lateral biases in nipple preferences, maternal cradling, carrying, and retrieval in 41 rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) mother-infant dyads living in two captive social groups. Observations were made during the first 6 weeks of infant life using a combination of scan sampling
## Abstract Family studies confirmed a codominant mode of inheritance of albumin phenotypes identified in __Macaca mulatta__. Preliminary epidemiological and bilirubin binding studies suggest that selection favors the variant allele by reducing risks of hyperbilirubinemia and might be responsible f
