The Lives of Primates
ANTH 103 FA

Many of the characteristics that we see as unique to humans are shared with other primates (apes, monkeys, and prosimians) and have their origins in our evolutionary past. This course will explore the basic behaviors that make up the daily lives of primates, focusing on activities such as social interaction (including dominance relations, alliance formation, and grooming), reproduction, diet, locomotion, and communication. The similarities and differences among humans and other primates will also b e examined.
