Developmental Canalization in Squirrel Monkey ( Saimiri bolivienesis ) Body Mass

2026-02-09

Abstract excerpt

Animal growth is often described as self-correcting or canalized with most vertebrate evidence coming from laboratory rodents, domesticated livestock, and human auxological research. Non-human primate models for developmental canalization are necessary given the long duration and multi-phasic nature of primate growth that limit comparisons with these taxa. We explored patterns of body size growth in captive female...
