He then says he goes to "exceptional lengths" to make ensure the physical and psychological welfare of the primates he uses, "except when it's absolutely necessary" to harm them.

Early morning is of course birding prime time and a pre-breakfast stroll around our lodge produced sightings of the lovely Orange-bellied Parrot , which we tracked down to a nesting hole right next to the restaurant.

Even among our primate relatives, whoa are generally very smart, “Theory of Mind” is found in only a few species. If the crows can distinguish between UCA and HCA, they should treat UCA related events with caution, but be more indifferent to events caused by a HCA, unless of course the HCA is a cat.

This woman said that those scenes didn't really bother her that much, it was the ghost and sexual implications in the story that disturbed her (latter relating to the human characters of course.) Which surprised me. It didn't affect you AT ALL? So, fine, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Nearer to the eastern and southern coasts are extensive wetlands, however, and within these I spent considerable time over the course of three days. On Bush Bush, the main attraction is undoubtedly the pair of native primate species: Red Howler and (Trinidad) White-fronted Capuchin, the latter being critically endangered.

And apart from local people, primate researchers sometimes spot it, but it is a species seen by fewer than ten living birders.

Primates are exceptional among the mammals, living amphibians (which represent only a small part of the original amphibian family tree) are pretty noisy too. Except, of course, there are, or should I say, there is one , so far, to make that comparison. A look at the brain would be nice too, of course.). But there aren’t any!

And of course, some Chinese researchers worked on the complete mitochondrial genome of the Greater Coucal. At Sepilok, it can be hard to avoid taking photos of some non-birds, such as primates. As you know, some primates face a number of court cases, both criminal and civil ones. I think they just got what they deserved.
