Flexibility in primate vocal behaviour: the role of socio-ecological pressures and context in the production and percep-tion of vocal signals.
REFNo: NS759ES
The general aim of the proposed study is to contribute to the debate about how fluctuations in socio-ecological pressures may lead to more or less flexible behavioural strategies in primate social and vocal behaviour, and what role individual states may additionally contribute to this. This is done by studying the behavioural consequences of (1.) fluctuations in predation pressures and (2.) fluctuations in female reproductive states in two different primate species of the Budongo Forest Reserve: (1.) guereza colobus monkeys (Colobus guereza) and (2.) chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes). For the study on the colobus monkeys, behavioural monitoring, as well as playback experiments, will be conducted to find out whether guereza colobus monkeys flexibly adjust their vocal and social behaviour relative to local differences in predation pressures. For the study on the chimpanzees, only behavioural observation will be conducted, aimed to assess whether female chimpanzees flexibly adjust their vocal and social behaviour relative to reproductive state and food availability. These studies test hypotheses arising from substantial previous work with the Sonso and Kaniyo Pabidi communities of Guereza colobus monkeys and chimpanzees in the Budongo Forest, Uganda, which in the past also entailed observational and acoustical experimental fieldwork.
