Life history and the competitive environment: trajectories of growth, maturation, and reproductive output among chacma baboons.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 Jan 2003

Johnson Sara E

Abstract excerpt

The social environment is a key feature influencing primate life histories. Chacma baboons (Papio hamadryas ursinus) are a female-bonded species with a strict linear dominance hierarchy. In this species, the allocation of energy to competing demands of growth and reproduction is hypothesized to vary as a function of competitive ability, which in turn increases with social rank. Since growth rate is a major...
