Strategies and mechanisms of collective inter-group aggression and in-group defense among wild eastern chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) in Kibale National Park, Uganda
REFNo: NS496ES

The objectives of this doctoral dissertation project are to better elucidate the group-level, individual, and physiological mechanisms exhibited by wild eastern chimpanzees to achieve a risky form of collective action, namely participation and contribution in lethal aggression between territorially distinct chimpanzee communities. I will study the Kanyawara community of wild eastern chimpanzees to answer these questions of interest.
