## Abstract We investigated whether capuchin monkeys (__Cebus apella__) would choose to observe a high‐ or low‐status adult female from their group during experimental foraging tests. The subject was located in the center of a test chamber, with a low‐ and high‐ranking demonstrator on either side o

This study tested several hypotheses regarding the functions of urine washing (UW) in a captive group of brown capuchin monkeys (Cebus upella), using observational and experimental methods. Observational data obtained over a 16 month period revealed no correlation between rates of UW and age or aggr

## Abstract Cannell [Journal of Archaeological Science 29:335–339, 2002] argued that sex‐based differences among humans in terms of the mass of chosen throwing stones could be used to infer body mass and patterns of sexual dimorphism in early hominids from Olduvai and Koobi Fora by examining the ma

Visalberghi and Fragaszy [Animal Behaviour 49:1089-1095, 1995] have shown that social influences affect acceptance of novel foods. However, little is known about the temporal course on which such influences act (e.g., for how long they persist and for how many encounters they are effective). To expl

Researchers have identified a variety of cross-site differences in the foraging behavior of free-ranging great apes, most notably among chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) and more recently orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus), that are not due to obvious genetic or ecological differences. These differences are of
