David Muñoz Zetina División de Ciencias Biológicas, Universidad Juárez Autónoma de Tabasco Tabasco, México. aullador@primatesmx.com El presente estudio forma parte de un programa de investigación mas amplio sobre población, ecología y comportamiento de mono aullador en el parque Yumká en el estado de Tabasco, México. El proyecto versa sobre una investigación acerca de como asignan los aulladores el tiempo disponible a diferentes comportamientos para satisfacer sus actividades vitales: crecimiento, manetinimiento y reproducción. Para lograr esto, observo la ocurrencia y duración de comportamientos generales como descanso, alimentación, locomoción, interacciones sociales y viaje. Estamos interesados también en describir como varían los patrones de actividad en el tiempo y espacio, esto como resultado de variaciones en la dispersión y disponibilidad de los recursos alimentarios. Esto nos permitirá lograr un entendimiento de los ajustes que hacen los aulladores a los cambios en la disponibilidad del alimento y comprender como asignan el tiempo y energía que tienen disponibles para sobrevivir día a día. El clima es cálido húmedo con lluvias en verano. La temperatura media anual que se presenta es de 26.9° C con una máxima mensual de 29.4 ° C, en los meses de Mayo y Junio y una mínima mensual de 23.8° C en el mes de Enero. La precipitación media anual es de 2,000 mm con una distribución estacional.

    Extractions: Primate research in southern Mexico Alejandro Estrada Ph.D Laboratory of Primatology, Estación de Biología "Los Tuxtlas", Instituto de Biología Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México General background The tropical rain forests Tropical rain forests occupy only between 6-10% of the surface of the Earth, but harbor between 50-80% of existing plant and animal species. Of these only between 10-20% have been descvribed at the species level. The number of species for which we have precise knowledge regarding basic aspects of their biology and ecology is significantly smaller. These ecosystems are also an important source of climatic stability and of many resources used by man, ranging from food to pharmaceutical and industrial products. However, everyday about 20,000 ha of tropical rain forest vanished from the face of the Earth as a result of human activity . Such destruction results in the daily local and regional extinction of numerous species. In Latin América, as in the rest of the world, tropical rain forests have been subjected, in the last 50 years, to a rapid process of destruction and fragmentation resulting from land management practices in conflict with a rational use of the resources present in these forests. Coupled to these events, the accelareted growth of human populations and the pressing demand for space and food also contribute to the rapid disappearance of these ecosyustems in the American continent.

    Extractions: Department of Comparative Culture Anth 205 is an introductory course to the broad fields of Physical Anthropology and Archaeology. It is also a course intended primarily for 2nd-year college students. Consequently, this study guide is thorough it contains almost all of the questions that will appear on the quizzes and examinations. However, there is not an excessive amount of material in this guide for each chapter, or for the whole course. Therefore, there is no excuse for any student getting less than a C+ (75%) on any of the quizzes or examinations; most students should get grades between A- and B.

    http://research.amnh.org/mammalogy/biblio/
    
    Extractions: This bibliography is designed to guide beginning students in mammalogy to literature in specific areas. The works included are primarily monographic and of wide coverage. It is also a work in progress; I add new works and update editions when any such come to my attention. Note: This list has been compiled by scouring through curatorial offices and the library in the Department of Mammalogy at the American Museum of Natural History. It has been updated by perusing the new main library books borrowed by curators. I note the Museum's call number or the Library of Congress number on the back of the title page; these are not always the same, and I prefer the Museum Library's number. Several titles are taken from publisher's fliers and Choice cards; the pagination is not always correct for books that are yet to be issued, and they usually end in suspiciously round numbers. To recommend inclusion of additional works or to correct listings, please notify John H. Wahlert

55. ASP - Ethical Treatment Of Non-human Primates
    in a number of research disciplines, we accept the general applicability of completelythe special considerations that apply to working with nonhuman primates.  
    http://www.asp.org/society/resolutions/EthicalTreatmentOfNonHumanPrimates.html
    
    Extractions: The following guidelines were formulated by the ASP Research and Development Committee, for the purpose of providing a public document regarding ASP standards for the use of nonhuman primates in research. The Board of Directors officially approved this policy statement in its present form on October 2, 2001. The finalized guidelines may be used by the AJP Editor when ethical considerations are an issue. The stated purposes of the American Society of Primatologists (ASP) are exclusively educational and scientific; specifically, to promote and encourage the discovery and exchange of information regarding primates, including all aspects of their anatomy, behavior, development, ecology, evolution, genetics, nutrition, physiology, reproduction, systematics, conservation, husbandry, and use in biomedical research. The Society is organized around an interest in primates rather than a specific discipline; ASP members abide by specific guidelines for the use of animals developed by discipline-based organizations such as the American Psychological Association , American Society of Mammalogists , Animal Behavior Society and the Society for Neuroscience . Because ASP members are grounded in a number of research disciplines, we accept the general applicability of these guidelines to primatological research, however specific recommendations developed by these societies may not address completely the special considerations that apply to working with nonhuman primates. Despite their varied disciplines, ASP members hold the following general principles in common:

    http://www.ahsc.arizona.edu/uac/notes/classes/primatebiology/primatesbiology.htm
    
    Extractions: University of Arizona - Tucson CLASSIFICATION OF NONHUMAN PRIMATES (see Table 1 Nonhuman primates are classified into four major categories: PROSIMIANS, NEW WORLD MONKEYS ( Platyrrhiny ), OLD WORLD MONKEYS ( Catarrhina ), and APES ( Hominoidea ). The true prosimians are primitive primates far removed from human stock and are found in arboreal habitats. The Lemuriformes of Madagascar are classified as endangered species and trade in them is not permitted. So far, no particular uses for them in medical research have been found. The new world monkeys (NWM) comprise two families the Callitrichidae (marmosets and tamarinds) and Cebidae, the members of which vary greatly in size, diet, habits, and color. They are more distantly related to man than the old world primates and may for this reason be a less reliable model for medical studies. Only five groups are in regular use in laboratories: 1. Marmosets and tamarins (

    Extractions: ANT 210 - General Anthropology ANT210@killgrove.org Class Web Page: http://www.killgrove.org/ANT210 Required Text Class Requirements : I expect each student to attend class every day and to participate in class discussion. Attendance and participation will not be graded directly, but grades that are on the border could be helped by active engagement in class. Assigned reading should be done before the date for which it is assigned. This will enable students to participate in class discussion. Also note the critical thinking questions for each day, as these will cover in-class discussion topics and could show up on a quiz. There will be short, weekly quizzes, a midterm, a paper, and a final. Point totals are broken down as follows: 9 Quizzes = 25% (one drop quiz) Weekly quizzes will be short and will cover material either presented in class (lecture, slides, video, etc.) or from the homework reading. There will be one drop quiz. Both the midterm and the final will include multiple choice and short-answer questions, and the final will also include one or two longer essays. The paper assignment will be a short 5- to 8-page essay on one of two topics which will be announced later in the semester. Course Outline: Introduction May 20
