We are looking for a field assistant to start this month and continue on through the end of August. This is a great opportunity for anyone looking for hands-on primatology experience. Feel free to DM me here and/or send an email to [email protected]. Please RT!

@jl_williamson @uwzoophys @uwyoag @UWyonews Congratulations!

@KaelynDobson Nice work!

Out today⚡️
Gibbons have different voices (just like we do) and we can exploit this to count populations more accurately.

We applied this idea to one of the rarest primates on Earth, finding that it's much closer to extinction than we previously thought.

If you ever wondered how much universities pay assistant professors, and how that compares to the local cost of living, wonder no more..

We learned that most, if not all, white-faced capuchins carry parasites at the Santa Rosa project, which is just a short distance away on the Pan-American highway. #AABA2024

Clark Barrett’s talk was aimed at researchers who facilitate race science with naive beliefs about science. Science is not now and never has been “value-free”, and there should be a high bar of evidence for evolutionary explanations #AABA2024

We are still accepting applications for field assistants! All expenses (aside from health insurance) are covered, and you have the opportunity to earn a stipend as well! Check out the ad: https://t.co/8mmD4D4hKF

Starting off the day by watching videos of gorillas pick their noses.

I love capuchins.

Who is excited about the AABA conference?!

[Wild Capuchin Foundation @WildCapuchin]

Although the current team isn't expressly trained on this group, they saw lots of infants and high-profile older adults. <3

[Wild Capuchin Foundation @WildCapuchin]

The current team focuses all of their efforts on following two monkey groups, Minstrel's group and Flake's group. However! The team just followed Pelon group for one day! This is super exciting for past researchers who have spent much time focused on this group.

We hope that you all had a lovely holiday season! Our field assistants got to take a few more days than usual for some much deserved rest after much monkey time!
