Lemurs share a common distant ancestor with humans. Following their
own evolutionary pathway, lemurs provide the ideal model to shed
light on the behavioural traits of primates including conflict
management, communication strategies and society building and how
these aspects of social living relate to those found in the
anthropoid primates. Adopting a comparative approach throughout,
lemur behaviour is cross-examined with that of monkeys, apes and
humans. This book reviews and expands upon the newest fields of
research in lemur behavioural biology, including recent analytical
approaches that have so far been limited to studies of haplorrhine
primates. Different methodological approaches are harmonised in
this volume to break conceptual walls between both primate taxa and
different disciplines. Through a focus on the methodologies behind
lemur behaviour and social interactions, future primate researchers
will be encouraged to produce directly comparable results.
