Social nutrition in guenons in Uganda
REFNo: NS895ES
I will investigate the effects of conspecific sociality on nutritional intake and nutrient balance in two forest guenon species in Uganda. Though we will investigate the nutrition of both sexes, we will start by examining adult female guenon social nutrition. Female guenons may face a tradeoff between (1) competition with conspecifics, potentially in the context of shallow dominance hierarchies, and with other monkey species and (2) their own nutritional goals. I will examine conspecific social behavior and nutrition at Kanyawara site, Kibale National Park, where I will continue my redtail nutrition work (Bryer 2020) examining nutrient intake and balance of female redtails in the context of conspecific and heterospecific feeding competition. I will also examine diet, then nutrition, and social behavior of females in one L’Hoest’s monkey group.
