这是一项关于万巴的侏儒黑猩猩的社会学研究,这些黑猩猩自1977年以来就得到了充分的供应。侏儒黑猩猩的社会与普通黑猩猩的社会基本相似,它们可以灵活地组成党派,并存在一个确定的社会单位,即,单位群它还类似于年轻女性在单位群体之间交换成员方面发挥重要作用,因此,作为群体之间基因的传递者;男性在整合群体方面发挥重要作用,通过群体间的对抗划定单位群体的社会边界。侏儒黑猩猩与普通黑猩猩的分裂和融合模式不同。前者通常比后者组成规模更大、成分更均匀的政党。前者的任何一方都具有生殖和护理功能,后者的各方根据功能和组成分为各种类型。侏儒黑猩猩聚会的这种一致性似乎是由雌性黑猩猩表现出半连续发情的高性能力很好地维持的。
This is a sociological study of the pygmy chimpanzees of Wamba which were provisioned sufficiently since 1977. The society of the pygmy chimpanzee is basically similar to that of the common chimpanzee in the flexibility in forming parties and in the existence of a definite social unit, i.e., unit group. It also resembles in that young females play an important role in exchanging members among unit groups, thus, as transmitters of genes from group to group; males do in integrating groups, delimiting the social boundaries of unit groups through their inter-group antagonism. Pygmy chimpanzees differ from common chimpanzees in fission and fusion pattern of parties. The former generally forms parties larger in size and more homogeneous in composition than the latter. Any party of the former has both reproductive and nursing functions; the parties of the latter are categorized into various types according to functions and compositions. This uniformity in pygmy chimpanzee parties seems to be well maintained by the females' high sexual ability to manifest semi-continual estrus.
