Jacobus S, Loy J. This may assist the infant in its suckling posture and to keep it warm (Chism 1986). The ontogeny of sex differences in the behavior of patas monkeys. Most supplantation of the single male in the polygynous groups occurs during the mating season and serves to provide the challenger with access to mating with resident females. Higher rates of conflict over dense, but limited, food, such as fruit bushes, is associated with more stable, well defined dominance hierarchies than habitats with more diffuse resources, such as insects. 1988. 1998a), Only young observed swinging by a branch, by the arms alone, To capture grasshoppers or lizards (Hall 1966), Vertically, to catch flying insects (Hall 1966; Isbell et al. The image has been cropped to focus attention on the specified behavior. Some years, patas groups may remain exclusive single-male mating systems while in subsequent years the same group may be a multi-male system (Carlson & Isbell 2001). The Kenyan habitat, near the southeastern end of their range, contains patas populations that were observed to reside in areas anywhere from treeless grassland to dense woodland to savanna woodland. Search in feature Commensalism and conflict: the human-primate interface. In fact, these vocalizations are so loud that they can be heard from up to 3 miles away!

The ecology of the introduced patas monkey (Erythrocebus patas) population of southwestern Puerto Rico. Loy J. In East African areas where patas ranges abut cropland, patas monkeys occasionally participate in crop raiding and use their high speed to escape when spotted by farmers (Lee & Priston 2005). The age at first conception in females in both the wild and in captivity is approximately 2.5 years resulting in the first birth at around three years of age (Chism et al. 2003).

Decoding patas social organization. Typically, patas will not sleep in the same tree for two consecutive nights but this may only be in areas where the predation risk is high, as sleeping-tree sharing among several individuals in the same night has been observed in wild populations in Cameroon (Nakagawa 1999). Loy K, Loy J. The belly is white, as are the legs and feet. In captivity, from birth until the fourth month of life, male and female infants receive comparable amounts of grooming and attention from their mothers. comm.).

In years when a multi-male/multi-female mating system is in place, males are much more likely to initiate copulation than in polygynous years. In one captive study, when a new group was created, the adult females formed a dominance hierarchy within several months through agonistic interactions (Loy & Harnois 1988). Due to their large numbers, this practice has not as of yet substantially affected their numbers. 1993). and across multiple seasons (or other periods hospitable to reproduction). reproduction in which fertilization and development take place within the female body and the developing embryo derives nourishment from the female. Indiscriminate response to infant calls in wild patas monkeys (Erythrocebus patas). 1996). In areas where hunting occurs, mortality from hunting may obscure biological interactions that otherwise limit populations.

Gonzles-Martnez J. Captive patas monkeys have confirmed these patterns. Patas are able to obtain more nutrition in the dry season than in the wet and this may be one explanation for the seasonality of their reproduction (Nakagawa 2000). Females showed the converse, initiating copulation at a much higher rate during single-male mating years than in multi-male system years (Carlson & Isbell 2001). Nakagawa N. 1998.

Patas monkeys are quadrupedal and their terrestrial locomotion is extremely quick for a primate, with a maximum speed of approximately 55 km per hour (34.2 mph) They are a relatively silent species with few physical cues that rely on visual communication to avoid agonistic interactions within groups (McNeilis & Boatright-Horowitz 1998).
