Barbary macaque

<h2 id="taxonomy-and-phylogeny">Taxonomy and phylogeny</h2> <p>The Barbary macaque is first described in scientific literature by <a href="/facts/Aristotle/U2bDlBFW">Aristotle</a> in the fourth century BCE work <i><a href="/facts/History_of_Animals/6qWD39w6">History of Animals</a></i>. He writes of an ape with "arms like a man, only covered with hair", "feet [which] are exceptional in kind ... like large hands", and "a tail as small as small can be, just a sort of indication of a tail". It is likely that <a href="/facts/Galen/9gDqPdwl">Galen</a> (129–c.216) dissected the Barbary macaque in the second century CE, presuming the internal structure to be the same as a human. Such was the authority of his work, some mistakes he made were not corrected until <a href="/facts/Andreas_Vesalius/WpsoRX0G">Andreas Vesalius</a> (1514–1564) proved otherwise over a thousand years later.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> The Barbary macaque was included in the grouping <i>Simia</i> by <a href="/facts/Conrad_Gessner/m4DqHYJx">Conrad Gessner</a> in his 1551 work <i><a href="/facts/Historia_animalium_(Gessner_book)/PssE4g86">Historia Animalium</a></i>,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a> a name which he claimed was already in use by the Greeks.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9"><sup>9</sup></a> Gessner's <i><a href="/facts/Simia/hnUnSnrC">Simia</a></i> was subsequently used as one of <a href="/facts/Carl_Linnaeus/gy5HWkHS">Carl Linnaeus</a>' four primate <a href="/facts/Genus/m8EFjSms">genera</a> when he published <i><a href="/facts/Systema_Naturae/8o4rU1DD">Systema Naturae</a></i> in 1758.

These relationships suggest that males do so in order to indirectly increase their own <a href="/facts/Fitness_(biology)/MYpAGGey">fitness</a>. Furthermore, males form <a href="/facts/Coalition/UBKPe3tX">coalitions</a> with closely related kin more often than they do with distantly related kin.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:64" href="#fn:64"><sup>64</sup></a> These coalitions are not permanent and may change frequently as male ranking within the group changes.

Interactions between males are commonly initiated when a male presents an infant macaque to an adult male who is not caring for an infant, or when an unattached male approaches males who are caring for infants. This behaviour leads to a type of social buffering, which reduces the number of antagonistic interactions among males in a group.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:67" href="#fn:67"><sup>67</sup></a> </p><p>An open mouth display by the Barbary macaque is used most commonly by juvenile macaques as a sign of playfulness.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:68" href="#fn:68"><sup>68</sup></a> </p> <h3>Alarm calls</h3> <p>The main purpose of calls in Barbary macaques is to alert other group members to possible dangers such as <a href="/facts/Predator/JEGdrX3f">predators</a>. Barbary macaques can discriminate calls by individuals in their own group from those by individuals in other groups of <a href="/facts/Conspecificity/9LRI9yyR">conspecific</a> macaques. Neither genetic variation nor habitat differences are likely causes of <a href="/facts/Acoustics/2GpQUymy">acoustic</a> variation in the calls of different social groups. Instead, minor variations in acoustic structure among groups similar to the vocal accommodation seen in humans are the likely cause. However, acoustic characteristics such as <a href="/facts/Pitch_(music)/fQAK0JsC">pitch</a> and <a href="/facts/Loudness/N760pyRc">loudness</a> are varied based on the vocalizations of individuals they associate with, and social situations play a role in the acoustic structure of calls.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:69" href="#fn:69"><sup>69</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:70" href="#fn:70"><sup>70</sup></a> </p><p>Barbary macaque females have the ability to recognize their own offspring's calls through a variety of acoustic parameters. Because of this, infant calls do not have to differ dramatically for mothers to be able to recognize their own infant's call. Mothers demonstrate different behaviours on hearing the calls of other infant macaques as opposed to the calls of their own offspring. More parameters for vocalizations lead to more reliable identification of calls in both infants and in adult macaques so it is not surprising that the same acoustic characteristics that are heard in infant calls are also heard in adult calls.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:71" href="#fn:71"><sup>71</sup></a> </p> <h3>Mating</h3> <p>Although Barbary macaques are <a href="/facts/Sexual_maturity/VL3SueFf">sexually active</a> at all points during a female's reproductive cycle, male Barbary macaques determine a female's most fertile period by <a href="/facts/Sexual_swelling/H3BuQLf0">sexual swellings</a> on the female.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:72" href="#fn:72"><sup>72</sup></a> Mating is most common during a female's most fertile period. The swelling size of the female reaches a maximum around the time of ovulation, suggesting that size helps a male predict when he should mate. This is further supported by the fact that male ejaculation peaks at the same time that female <a href="/facts/Sexual_swelling/H3BuQLf0">sexual swelling</a> peaks. Change in female sexual behaviour around the time of ovulation is insufficient to demonstrate to the male that the female is fertile. The swellings, therefore, appear necessary for predicting fertility.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:73" href="#fn:73"><sup>73</sup></a> </p><p>Barbary macaque females differ from other nonhuman primates in that they often mate with a majority of the males in their social group. While females are active in choosing sexual associations, the mating behaviour of macaque social groups is not entirely determined by <a href="/facts/Mate_choice/rMjIUJaP">female choice</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:74" href="#fn:74"><sup>74</sup></a> These multiple matings by females decrease the certainty of paternity of male Barbary macaques and may lead them to care for all infants within the group. For a male to ensure his reproductive success, he must maximize his time spent around the females in the group during their <a href="/facts/Fertility/5S7Xull5">fertile</a> periods. Injuries to male macaques peak during the fertile period, which points to male-male competition as an important determinant of male reproductive success.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:75" href="#fn:75"><sup>75</sup></a> Not allowing a female to mate with other males, however, would be costly to the male, since doing so would not allow him to mate with more females.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:76" href="#fn:76"><sup>76</sup></a> </p> <h3>Parenting</h3> <p>Barbary macaques from all age and sex groups participate in <a href="/facts/Alloparenting/7rMxgN2R">alloparental</a> care of infants. Male care of infants has been of particular interest to research because high levels of care from males are uncommon in groups where paternity is highly uncertain. Males even act as true alloparents of infant macaques by carrying them and caring for them for hours at a time as opposed to just demonstrating more casual interactions with the infants. The social status of females plays a role in female alloparental interactions with infants. Higher-ranking females have more interactions, whereas younger, lower-ranking females have less access to infants.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:77" href="#fn:77"><sup>77</sup></a> </p> <h3>Diet</h3> <p>The diet of the Barbary macaque consists of a mixture of plants and insect prey. It consumes a large variety of <a href="/facts/Gymnosperms/lzcpfbUK">gymnosperms</a> and <a href="/facts/Angiosperms/E5eGYIvY">angiosperms</a>. Almost every part of the plant is eaten, including flowers, fruits, seeds, seedlings, leaves, buds, bark, gum, stems, roots, bulbs, and corms. Common prey caught and consumed by Barbary macaques are snails, earthworms, scorpions, spiders, centipedes, millipedes, grasshoppers, termites, <a href="/facts/Water_striders/c58XA5xm">water striders</a>, <a href="/facts/Scale_insects/r42lyLhm">scale insects</a>, beetles, butterflies, moths, ants, and even tadpoles.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:78" href="#fn:78"><sup>78</sup></a> </p><p>Barbary macaques can cause major damage to the trees in their prime habitat, the <a href="/facts/Atlas_cedar/Tqpn48wn">Atlas cedar</a> forests in <a href="/facts/Morocco/6ly8170M">Morocco</a>. Since deforestation in Morocco has become a major environmental problem in recent years, research has been conducted to determine the cause of the bark stripping behaviour demonstrated by these macaques. Cedar trees are also vital to this population of Barbary macaques as an area with cedars can support a much higher density of macaques than one without them. A lack of a water source and exclusion of monkeys from water sources are major causes of cedar bark stripping behaviour in Barbary macaques. Density of macaques, however, is less correlated with the behaviour than the other causes considered.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:79" href="#fn:79"><sup>79</sup></a> </p> <h3>Predators</h3> <p>The Barbary macaque's main predators are the <a href="/facts/Domestic_dog/DvQVRVzy">domestic dog</a>,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:80" href="#fn:80"><sup>80</sup></a> <a href="/facts/Leopard/nXn20qBa">leopard</a> and <a href="/facts/Eagle/I43HPS7R">eagles</a>; the <a href="/facts/Golden_eagle/MrasUBNd">golden eagle</a> may only prey on cubs, since it is morphologically not adapted to hunt primates.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:81" href="#fn:81"><sup>81</sup></a> The approach of eagles and domestic dogs is known to elicit an <a href="/facts/Alarm_signal/oWWJWhbU">alarm call</a> response.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:82" href="#fn:82"><sup>82</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="threats">Threats</h2> <p>Wild populations of Barbary macaques have suffered a major decline in recent years to the point of being declared an <a href="/facts/Endangered_species/L7cIweSW">endangered species</a> on the <a href="/facts/IUCN_Red_List/8gemqCLu">IUCN Red List</a> since 2008. The Barbary macaque is threatened by fragmentation and degradation of forest habitat, and <a href="/facts/Poaching/UgYKJV0E">poaching</a> for the illegal pet trade; it is also killed in retaliation for raiding crops.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:83" href="#fn:83"><sup>83</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:84" href="#fn:84"><sup>84</sup></a> Today, no accurate data exists on the location and number of individuals out of their natural habitat.

Once common throughout northern Africa and southern Mediterranean Europe, only an estimated 12,000 to 21,000 Barbary macaques are left in Morocco and Algeria. Once, its distribution was much more extensive, spreading east through Algeria, Tunisia and Libya, and north to the United Kingdom. Its range is no longer continuous, with only isolated areas of range remaining. By the <a href="/facts/Pleistocene/0ya9eUp5">Pleistocene</a>, it inhabited the warmer Mediterranean regions of Europe, from the <a href="/facts/Balearic_Islands/zsbDICWA">Balearic Islands</a> and mainland <a href="/facts/Iberia/ztFXI8zt">Iberia</a> and France in the west, east to Italy, <a href="/facts/Sicily/E6fug03z">Sicily</a>, <a href="/facts/Malta/FsqM3M37">Malta</a>, and as far north as <a href="/facts/Germany/paluuWBX">Germany</a> and Norfolk in the British Isles.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:87" href="#fn:87"><sup>87</sup></a> The species decreased with the arrival of the last <a href="/facts/Last_Glacial_Period/mIYwj8e9">Last Glacial Period</a>, going functionally extinct on the <a href="/facts/Iberian_Peninsula/ztFXI8zt">Iberian Peninsula</a> except for Gibraltar around 30,000 years ago.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:88" href="#fn:88"><sup>88</sup></a> </p><p>The Barbary macaque is threatened by <a href="/facts/Habitat_loss/pyPMkBCY">habitat loss</a>, <a href="/facts/Overgrazing/nkzowGh1">overgrazing</a>, and illegal capture. In Morocco, tourists interact with Barbary macaques in many regions. Information collected in the interviews with inhabitants in the High Atlas of Morocco indicated that the capture of macaques occurs in these regions. Conflict between local people and wild macaques is one of the greatest challenges to Barbary macaque conservation in Morocco. The main threats to the survival of Barbary macaques in this region have been found to be <a href="/facts/Habitat_destruction/pyPMkBCY">habitat destruction</a> and the impact of livestock grazing, but problems of conflict with inhabitants are also increasing due to crop raiding and the illegal capture of macaques. Human–macaque conflict is mainly due to crop raiding. In the High Atlas of Morocco, macaques attract a large number of tourists every year, and they are favoured for their potential benefits to tourism. In addition, macaques have some ecological roles; for example, they are the predators of several destructive insects and pests of plants and participate in seed dispersal in many plant species.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:89" href="#fn:89"><sup>89</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:90" href="#fn:90"><sup>90</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:91" href="#fn:91"><sup>91</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:92" href="#fn:92"><sup>92</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:93" href="#fn:93"><sup>93</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:94" href="#fn:94"><sup>94</sup></a> </p><p>In the Central High Atlas, the Barbary macaque occurs in relatively small and fragmented areas restricted to the main valleys at elevations of 700–2,400 m (2,300–7,900 ft). In a 2013 study, researchers reported that they found Barbary macaques in relatively small and fragmented habitats in 10 sites, and that the species no longer occurred in four localities. This could be attributed to habitat degradation, hunting activities, the impact of livestock grazing, and disturbance by people. As deforestation for agriculture and <a href="/facts/Overgrazing/nkzowGh1">overgrazing</a> continues, the remaining forest becomes increasingly fragmented. Consequently, the Barbary macaque is now restricted to small, fragmented relict habitats.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:95" href="#fn:95"><sup>95</sup></a> </p> <h3>Human use and tourism</h3> <p>Many of the mistaken ideas about human <a href="/facts/Anatomy/p8TCWJuV">anatomy</a> contained in the writings of <a href="/facts/Galen/9gDqPdwl">Galen</a> are apparently due to his use of the Barbary macaque, the only <a href="/facts/Simian/0vyESHsC">anthropoid</a> available to him, in <a href="/facts/Dissection/7Tbbx3rr">dissections</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:96" href="#fn:96"><sup>96</sup></a> Strong <a href="/facts/Culture/c5JgMqpX">cultural</a> <a href="/facts/Taboo/3KuFszoI">taboos</a> of his time prevented his performing any dissections of human <a href="/facts/Cadaver/g3SzbFxy">cadavers</a>, even in his role as <a href="/facts/Physician/qJ3woFvG">physician</a> and teacher of physicians.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:97" href="#fn:97"><sup>97</sup></a> </p><p>Macaques in Morocco are frequently used as photo props, despite their protected status.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:98" href="#fn:98"><sup>98</sup></a> Tourists are encouraged to take photos with the animals for a fee.

Although tourism has the potential to bring in money towards conservation goals and provides an incentive for the protection of natural habitats, close proximity and interactions with tourists can also have significant psychological impacts on the Barbary macaques. Fecal samples and stress-indicating behaviours, such as belly scratching, indicate that the presence of tourists has a negative impact on the macaques. Human activities such as taking photographs cause the animals stress, possibly because the people come too close to the animals and make prolonged eye contact (a sign of aggression in many primates). Macaques that live in areas close to human contact have more parasites and lower overall health than those that live in wilder environments, at least in part due to the unhealthy diets they receive as a result of feeding from humans.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:101" href="#fn:101"><sup>101</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:102" href="#fn:102"><sup>102</sup></a> </p><p>Several groups of Barbary macaques can be found in tourist sites, where they are affected by the presence of visitors providing food to them. Researchers comparing two such groups in the central High Atlas mountains in 2008 found that the tourist group of Barbary macaques spent significantly more time engaged in resting and aggressive behaviour, and foraged and moved significantly less than the wild group. The tourist group spent significantly less time per day feeding on herbs, seeds, and acorns than the wild group. Human food accounted for 26% of the daily feeding records for the tourist group, and 1% for the wild-feeding group.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:103" href="#fn:103"><sup>103</sup></a> Scientists who collected data on the seasonal activity budget and diet composition of the endangered Barbary macaque group inhabiting a tourist site in Morocco found that activity budgets and diet of the study group varied markedly among seasons and habitats. The percentage of daily time spent in foraging and moving was lowest in spring, and the daily time spent in resting was highest in spring and summer. The time budget devoted to aggressive display was highest in spring than the other three seasons. There is an increase in the daily feeding time spent eating flowers and fruits in summer, seeds, acorns, roots and barks in winter and autumn, herbs in spring and summer, and a clear increase in consumption of the human food in spring.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:104" href="#fn:104"><sup>104</sup></a> The tourist and the wild groups did not differ in the proportion of daily records devoted to terrestrial feeding, but the tourist group spent a significantly lower percentage of daily records in terrestrial foraging, moving and resting, while performing more terrestrial aggressive displays more than the wild group.
