Socioendocrinology of female forest living olive baboons (Papio anubis)
REFNo: NS998ES
This research aims to explore the hormonal correlates of dominance, aggression, and affiliative (pro-social) behavior in female forest-living olive baboons (*Papio anubis*) at Kibale National Park, Uganda. Specifically, it investigates how female dominance rank, aggression, and social behaviors relate to physiological stress and aggression markers, measured through glucocorticoids and testosterone. By examining these relationships at multiple temporal scales, the study will shed light on the adaptive significance of social hierarchies and behaviors among females living in an ecologically stable forest environment, thus advancing the understanding of socioendocrine mechanisms underpinning female primate sociality.
