Monkey hear, monkey do what? An application of Automated Behavioural Response systems for hypothesis testing in the world’s smallest monkey

2026-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Observer effects are a frequent problem in animal behaviour studies, particularly when assessing responses to human disturbance. Automated Behavioural Response (ABR) systems, which combine camera traps with automated sound playbacks, offer a solution but have been primarily used on large terrestrial mammals. Here, we demonstrate their use in a small (∼110g) arboreal primate, the eastern pygmy marmoset ( Cebuella...
