Most research on mechanisms of aging is being conducted in a very limited number of
classical model species, ie, laboratory mouse (Mus musculus), rat (Rattus norvegicus …

Aging is a complex process indicated by low energy levels, declined physiological activity,
stress induced loss of homeostasis leading to the risk of diseases and mortality. Recent …

Effective conservation and management of threatened wildlife populations require an
accurate assessment of age structure to estimate demographic trends and population …

Rising temperatures due to climate change are predicted to threaten the persistence of wild
animals, but there is little evidence that climate change has pushed species beyond their …

This review delves into the multifaceted aspects of age-related balance changes,
highlighting their prevalence, underlying causes, and the impact they have on the elderly …

Despite close to three decades of genetic studies that have tried to resolve the precise
phylogenetic position of owl monkeys (genus Aotus) within the platyrrhine radiation, some …

Mitochondrial DNA remains a cornerstone for molecular ecology, especially for study
species from which high‐quality tissue samples cannot be easily obtained. Methods using …

Within primates, the great apes are outliers both in terms of body size and lifespan, since
they include the largest and longest-lived species in the order. Yet, the molecular bases …

Twenty years ago, Dominy and colleagues published “The sensory ecology of primate food
perception,” an impactful review that brought new perspectives to understanding primate …

Studying biological ageing in animal models can circumvent some of the confounds
