Same father, same face: deep-learning reveals paternally-derived signalling of kinship in a wild primate

2019-10-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Animal faces convey important information such as individual health status 1 or identity 2,3 . Human and nonhuman primates rely on highly heritable facial traits 4,5 to recognize their kin 6–8 . However, whether these facial traits have evolved for this specific function of kin recognition remains unknown. We present the first unambiguous evidence that inter-individual facial similarity has...
