Food Abundance Is the Main Determinant of High-Altitude Range Use in Snub-Nosed Monkeys
High-altitude dwelling primates have to optimize navigating a space that contains both a vertical and horizontal component. Black-and-white or Yunnan snub-nosed monkeys (Rhinopithecus bieti) are extreme by primate standards in inhabiting relatively cold subalpine temperate forests at very high altit...
