深入了解人类与猕猴相互作用的背景和模式,可以在评估和管理病原体传播的潜力方面发挥重要作用。印度尼西亚巴厘岛的Padangtegal猴林和直布罗陀的Upper Rock自然保护区是两个在人与猕猴互动方面得到较好研究的地点。本文介绍了一个概述人类和猕猴之间的互动模式,在这些网站沿着与当地和nonlocal人类在网站之间的文化,人口和上下文差异的描述。这两个网站的互动模式的差异包括咬率,食物在侵略性的互动中的作用,以及互动发生的背景。相似之处包括成年雄性猕猴的互动和当地文化和人口因素的重大影响。这些相似性和差异被解释为猕猴物种和行为,以及人类人口统计学,文化和行为模式的差异。Am.

An in-depth understanding of the contexts and patterns of human-macaque interactions can play an important role in assessing and managing the potential for pathogen transmission. The Padangtegal Monkey Forest in Bali, Indonesia, and the Upper Rock Nature Reserve in Gibraltar are two sites that have been relatively well studied in regard to human-macaque interactions. This article presents an overview of interaction patterns between humans and macaques at these sites along with a description of the cultural, demographic, and contextual differences between local and nonlocal humans at the sites. Differences in these two sites' interaction patterns included bite rates, the role of food in aggressive interactions, and the context in which the interactions took place. Similarities included overrepresentation by adult male macaques in interactions and a substantial impact by local cultural and demographic factors. These similarities and differences are interpreted as resulting from differences in macaque species and behaviors, and human demography, culture, and behavioral patterns. Am. J.
