Foraging behaviour of three primate species in a Costa Rican coastal lowland tropical wet forest (2013)
Journal Article
Graham, K. E., Bulloch, M. J., & Lewis, T. R. (2013). Foraging behaviour of three primate species in a Costa Rican coastal lowland tropical wet forest. Biodiversity Journal, 4(2), 327-334

Primates are predominantly distributed across tropical regions, many of which are threatened by deforestation. Removal of mature trees can harm primate populations by reducing available food resources. Understanding the dietary requirements of primat...
