PDF-(BOOS)-Primate Tourism: A Tool for Conservation?

Primate tourism is a growing phenomenon with increasing pressure coming from several directions the private sector governments and conservation agencies At the same time some primate sites are working to exclude or severely restrict tourism because of problems that have developed as a result Indeed tourism has proven costly to primates due to factors such as disease stress social disruption vulnerability to poachers and interference with rehabilitation and reintroduction Bringing together interdisciplinary expertise in wildlifenature tourism and primatology experts present and discuss their accumulated experience from individual primate sites open to tourists formal studies of primatefocused tourism and trends in nature and wildlife tourism Chapters offer species and sitespecific assessments weighing conservation benefits against costs and suggesting strategies for the development of informed guidelines for ongoing and future primate tourism ventures Primate Tourism has been written for primatologists conservationists and other scientists It is also relevant to tourists and tourism professionals.

This genus is represented today by only one rare species. The authors explore the fossil history and evolution of the genus, its biogeography, comparative evolutionary biology and anatomy, and the behavior and socioecology of the living and extinct representatives of the genus. The parallels between the evolution of Theropithecus and early hominids are discussed. There are also two chapters of particular significance that describe how an innovative and exciting approach to the modeling of the causes of species extinction can be used with great success. This highly multidisciplinary approach provides a rare and insightful account of the evolutionary biology of this fascinating and once highly successful group of primates. Monkey see, monkey do may sound simple, but how an individual perceives and processes the behavior of another is one of the most complex and fascinating questions related to the social life of humans and other primates. In The Primate Mind, experts from around the world take a bottom-up approach to primate social behavior by investigating how the primate mind connects with other minds and exploring the shared neurological basis for imitation, joint action, cooperative behavior, and empathy.In the past, there has been a tendency to ask all-or-nothing questions, such as whether primates possess a theory of mind, have self-awareness, or have culture. A bottom-up approach asks, rather, what are the underlying cognitive processes of such capacities, some of which may be rather basic and widespread. Prominent neuroscientists, psychologists, ethologists, and primatologists use methods ranging from developmental psychology to neurophysiology and neuroimaging to explore these evolutionary foundations.A good example is mirror neurons, first discovered in monkeys but also assumed to be present in humans, that enable a fusing between one\'s own motor system and the perceived actions of others. This allows individuals to read body language and respond to the emotions of others, interpret their actions and intentions, synchronize and coordinate activities, anticipate the behavior of others, and learn from them. The remarkable social sophistication of primates rests on these basic processes, which are extensively discussed in the pages of this volume.
