Evolution and Ecology of Macaque Societies Book

Macaques are one of the most widely studied non-human primate groups. Within the last five million years, they have evolved into an incredibly diverse array of forms from long-tailed arboreal types, to robust terrestrial forms. Today, they are found in northwestern Africa and in South east Asia, but were once much more widespread. In this definitive synthesis, researchers from many parts of the world are brought together to interpret recent findings on many aspects of Macaque ecology, evolution, behavior and conservation.Read More

  • Product Description

    The genus Macaca is the most widely distributed of nonhuman primates and is found in twenty countries in Southeast Asia and North Africa. Over the comparative short time span of five million years, macaques have evolved diverse forms, from long-tailed arboreal types to robust terrestrial animals, and inhabit a variety of habitats. Although macaques are probably one of the most studied monkeys both in the wild and in captivity, data from long-term studies and pioneering work of little-known species are only just emerging. In this book, world authorities on macaques interpret recent research and present up-to-date syntheses of many aspects of macaque ecology, evolution, behavior and conservation.
