Abstract:
Within three millennia, capuchins appear to have made substantial progress in their use of stones relative to other living non-human primates, including the great apes. The rapid evolution of capuchin tool use can help us better understand unclear aspects of our own evolutionary journey; it can also inform us of the decisions we may have to make regarding how we will share our planet with this primate in the future. However, no prior literature has comparatively examined capuchin and human lithics within naturalistic contexts to subsequently tackle the issues of pre-Clovis validity and future

Abstract This article presents a novel approach to the study of primate personality and illustrates it with a study of capuchin monkeys. While most personality studies with capuchin monkeys have used rating questionnaires, the research method of this study relies instead on direct behaviour observations.

Further, all tufted capuchins were assigned to a single species, Cebus apella, despite broad geographic ranges spanning Central and northern South America.

Abstract:
&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; The understudied Hooded Capuchin (Sapajus cay) is the only representative of its genus in Paraguay. The species is distributed throughout the Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest, a biome that historically covered most of eastern Paraguay but has been reduced to small, isolated fragments by agricultural encroachment. Understanding group composition and demographics is important for monitoring the viability of populations. In this study, video camera traps were used to monitor a single group of Hooded Capuchins during their visits to a provisioning platform in a small Atlantic For

Abstract:
During foraging decisions, animals often make irrational choices. The selective-value effect refers to the lack of preference for an option consisting of one highly preferred item plus one less preferred item compared to a single highly preferred item. A similar bias is the less-is-better effect, in which individuals prefer a single highly preferred item rather than an option that includes both a highly preferred item and a less preferred one. Here, we investigated the occurrence of these decisional biases in twelve tufted capuchin monkeys (Sapajus spp.) by exploring, for the first time in thi

It is an undeniable fact that the number of young Capuchin candidates whohave not been ordained priests from 2000 to 2012 resign, at their own choice anddecision, from the Capuchin Order of Medan Province. This fact raises thequestion “Why did they withdraw from the Capuchin Order of the Province ofMedan?” To answer this question we used exploratory research and methods ofexit interview and exit questionary.

During one year, both in the dry and the wet seasons, we scored capuchins' behavior via scan sampling every ten minutes. Results showed that this group spent

Abstract:
Capuchin monkeys (genus Cebus ) have evolutionarily converged with humans and chimpanzees in a number of ways, including large brain size, omnivory and extractive foraging, extensive cooperation and coalitionary behaviour and a reliance on social learning. Recent research has documented a richer repertoire of group-specific social conventions in the coalition-prone Cebus capucinus than in any other non-human primate species; these social rituals appear designed to test the strength of social bonds. Such diverse social conventions have not yet been noted in Cebus apella , despite extensive obse

Abstract Many species were reported engaging in homosexual behaviour among mammals, birds, reptiles and insects. In primates, this behaviour seems to be much more frequent among apes and Old World monkeys than in New World monkeys, where only a few species, like squirrel monkeys, tamarins, marmosets, and capuchins, have been observed engaging in same-sex mounts. In capuchin monkeys, homosexual mounting has been rarely reported, with a few observations in Cebus capucinus and captive Sapajus groups. However, homosexual behaviour between males of the genus Sapajus has never before been reported o

Money represents a cornerstone of human modern economies and how money emerged as a medium of exchange is a crucial question for social sciences. Although non-human primates have not developed monetary systems, they can estimate, combine and exchange tokens.

Counterfactuals are alternative outcomes to past events. Curiosity for the counterfactual acts as an important driver of learning under uncertainty and helps to improve on past behaviors by informing future choices. Humans have demonstrated the desire to collect counterfactual information when it is perceived as useful, during times of uncertainty, and even when it comes at a cost. The comparative literature on counterfactual use and curiosity is small but suggests that rhesus macaques may possess similar tendencies to humans.

Its lack is now hampering conservation efforts, for, despite them being, in general, wide-ranging and adaptable, their forests are being destroyed to the extent that many populations are now evidently seriously threatened.
