Le comportement social de la Mone de Lowe (Cercopithecus camp belli lowei)

Abstract

The social position of the various age and sex categories within a wild troop of Cercopithecus campbellilowei has been studied, and quantitative data on the occurrence of some behavior patterns are provided. The spontaneous departure of troop members was observed 3 times in 2 years. It appeared to be correlated with the physical and social maturation of subadult males and the occurrence of the birth season.
