在乌干达西部Kibale国家公园附近的Rurama森林碎片中，观察到成年雄性赤结肠(Procolbus Tephrosceles)捕获并杀死了一只猫头鹰(Glaucidium Perlatum)。猫头鹰随后没有被结核、它们的同种物种或袭击期间出现的其他灵长类动物吃掉。由于这起事件之前发生了一次与猛禽的激烈交锋，因此最好的解释是，这是一次误导的反捕食者行为。尽管在红色根瘤中，反捕食者的行为并不陌生，但这是第一次有记录的针对猛禽的此类事件。上午好。J.Primatol。68：1-5,2006.©2006 Wiley-Liss，Inc.
Adult male red colobus (Procolobus tephrosceles) were observed capturing and killing an owl (Glaucidium perlatum) in the Rurama forest fragment near Kibale National Park in western Uganda. The owl was not subsequently eaten by the colobus, their conspecifics, or the other primates present during the attack. Because the incident was preceded by an agonistic encounter with a raptor, the event is best interpreted as a misdirected antipredator behavior. Although antipredator behaviors are not unknown in red colobus, this is the first such incident directed against a raptor to be documented. Am. J. Primatol. 68:1–5, 2006. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
