在本文中,我描述了我在灵长类动物学领域的62年,重点是在日本,印度和非洲进行的实地调查的一些关键发现。我对非人类灵长类动物的第一项研究详细描述了高崎山日本猕猴群的划分。在那之后,我有机会在印度的达尔瓦尔研究哈努曼叶猴。这些叶猴生活在一个男性,多女性群体。这种类型的集团结构通过全男性政党的接管得以维持。成年雄性和所有少年雄性都被赶出了这个群体。通过这个过程,一男多女的群体系统得以维持。进入的成年雄性咬伤并杀死了该组中的所有婴儿。失去婴儿的母亲进入发情期,与新来的雄性交配。多年来,科学家们忽视了这些事件,或将其排除为异常行为。我对日本猕猴的研究表明,人工喂养所创造的集中资源夸大了个体之间的统治等级,而在自然环境中相对宽松。我还调查了一个群体的人口动态和个人的生活史。从这些研究中,我记录了双胞胎的出生频率,母亲携带死亡婴儿的情况,以及身体畸形的发生。这些观察结果是通过人工喂养实现的,揭示了这种方法的优点和缺点。我指出,作者和期刊编辑必须小心地承认进行研究的环境的重要因素,并且在科学文章中报告结果时应该描述这些因素。我对黑猩猩的研究是在几内亚的博苏进行的。我认为有男性生活在双性恋群体之外。这个种群中的黑猩猩制造并使用了许多种工具。其中一些只在博苏被观察到,还有一些是在博苏作为研究地点建立20年后才被发现的。经过几十年对黑猩猩使用工具的研究,我还提出,在黑猩猩的地理分布中存在文化区。
In this paper, I describe my 62 years in primatology focusing on some of the key findings from fieldwork conducted in Japan, India, and Africa. My first study on nonhuman primates described in detail the division of a troop of Japanese macaques at Takasakiyama. After that, I had an opportunity to work on Hanuman langurs at Dharwar, India. These langurs lived in one-male, multi-female groups. This type of group structure was maintained through takeovers by all-male parties. The adult male and all juvenile males were chased out of the group. By this process, the one-male, multi-female group system was maintained. The incoming adult male bit and killed all infants in the group. Mothers who lost their infants went into estrus and mated with the newly arrived male. For many years, scientists ignored these events or ruled them out as abnormal behavior. My work on Japanese macaques suggested that concentrated resources created by artificial feeding exaggerated dominance rank hierarchies among individuals, whereas it is comparatively relaxed in the natural environment. I also investigated the population dynamics of a troop and the life histories of individuals. From these studies, I documented the frequency of twin births, the carrying of dead infants by mothers, and the occurrence of physical malformations. These observations were made possible through artificial feeding, revealing the merits and demerits of this approach. I pointed out that authors and journal editors must be careful to acknowledge important elements of the environment where studies are conducted, and these should be described when reporting results in scientific articles. My studies of chimpanzees were conducted at Bossou, Guinea. I suggested that there are males who lived outside of bisexual groups. Chimpanzees in this population made and used many kinds of tools. Some of them were observed only at Bossou, and a few were only discovered 20 years after the establishment of Bossou as a research site. After decades of research on tool use in this species, I also suggested that there are cultural zones throughout the geographic distribution of chimpanzees.
