Papio originated in the early Pleistocene and diverged into multiple species, six of which are
extant. Among parapatric Papio species, there are obvious phenotypic differences that arose …

The analyses of the stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ13C), nitrogen (δ15N), and oxygen
(δ18O) in animal tissues are powerful tools for reconstructing the feeding behavior of …

As local and global disturbances reshape African savannas, an understanding of how
animal communities recover and respond to landscape features can inform conservation …

Ancient DNA analyses have shown that interbreeding between hominin taxa occurred
multiple times. Although admixture is often reflected in skeletal phenotype, the relationship …

Baboons (genus Papio) are an intriguing study system to investigate complex evolutionary
processes and the evolution of social systems. An increasing number of studies over the last …

Abstract Background Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique hosts a large population of
baboons, numbering over 200 troops. Gorongosa baboons have been tentatively identified …

Objectives The aim of this study is to assess a new assemblage of papionin fossils (n= 143)
recovered from later Pleistocene sediments in the Middle Awash study area in the Afar Rift of …

Hybridization in nature offers unique insights into the process of natural selection in incipient
species and their hybrids. In order to evaluate the patterns and targets of selection, we …

Objectives With contemporary, human‐induced climate change at a crisis point, extreme
weather events (eg, cyclones, heatwaves, floods) are becoming more frequent, intense, and …

Gorongosa National Park in central Mozambique offers an unparalleled setting for the study
of primate adaptations to complex and highly dynamic environments. Located at the …
