  • Climate induced stress and mortality in vervet monkeys 
    Young, Christopher; Bonnell, Tyler R.; Brown, Leslie R.; Dostie, Marcus J.; Ganswindt, Andre; Kienzle, Stefan; McFarland, Richard; Henzi, S. Peter; Barrett, Louise (Royal Society Publishing, 2019-11)
    As the effects of global climate change become more apparent, animal species will become increasingly affected by extreme climate and its effect on the environment. There is a pressing need to understand animal physiological ...
  • Formidable females redux: male social integration into female networks and the value of dynamic multilayer networks 
    Bonnell, Tyler R.; Vilette, Chloe; Young, Christopher; Henzi, Stephanus Peter; Barrett, Louise (Oxford University Press, 2021-02)
    The development of multilayer network techniques is a boon for researchers who wish to understand how different interaction layers might influence each other, and how these in turn might influence group dynamics. Here, we ...
  • Infrared thermography cannot be used to approximate core body temperature in wild primates 
    McFarland, Richard; Barrett, Louise; Fuller, Andrea; Hetem, Robyn S.; Porter, Warren P.; Young, Christopher; Henzi, S. Peter (Wiley, 2020-12)
    Understanding the physiological processes that underpin primate performance is key if we are to assess how a primate might respond when navigating new and changing environments. Given the connection between a mammal's ...
  • Male characteristics as predictors of genital color and display variation in vervet monkeys 
    Young, Mirjam M.I.; Winters, Sandra; Young, Christopher; Weiß, Brigitte M.; Troscianko, Jolyon; Ganswindt, Andre; Barrett, Louise; Henzi, S. Peter; Higham, James P.; Widdig, Anja (Springer, 2020-01)
    In the animal kingdom, conspicuous colors are often used for inter- and intra-sexual communication. Even though primates are the most colorful mammalian taxon, many questions, including what potential information color ...
  • Male residency and dispersal triggers in a seasonal breeder with influential females 
    Young, Christopher; McFarland, Richard; Ganswindt, Andre; Young, Mirjam M.I.; Barrett, Louise; Henzi, S. Peter (Elsevier, 2019-08)
    Males in female-philopatric social groupings leave their natal groups to pursue successive reproductive opportunities in one or more other groups. In vervet monkeys, Chlorocebus pygerythrus, adult males coexist and physical ...
  • Modeling variation in the growth of wild and captive juvenile vervet monkeys in relation to diet and resource availability 
    Jarrett, Jonathan D.; Bonnell, Tyler; Jorgensen, Matthew J.; Schmitt, Christopher A.; Young, Christopher; Dostie, Marcus; Barrett, Louise; Henzi, Stephanus Peter (Wiley, 2020-01)
    OBJECTIVES : To compare longitudinal weight gain in captive and wild juvenile vervet monkeys and conduct an empirical assessment of different mechanistic growth models. METHODS : Weights were collected from two groups of ...
  • Sick and tired : sickness behaviour, polyparasitism and food stress in a gregarious mammal 
    Blersch, Rosemary; Bonnell, Tyler R.; Ganswindt, Andre; Young, Christopher; Barrett, Louise; Henzi, S. Peter (Springer, 2021-12)
    Although sickness behaviour in response to non-lethal parasites has been documented in wild animals, it remains unclear how social and environmental stress might also shape an animal’s behavioural response to parasitism, ...
