以体重和皮褶厚度计算相对体脂，对21只圈养雌性恒河猴的体脂含量进行了测定。虽然年龄和。怀孕对脂肪没有影响，等级是显着的，特别是在冬季，高等级的女性有最高的脂肪分数。因此，等级对圈养动物的健康有显著影响，也可能影响野生群体中个体的健康。
Using weight and skinfold thickness to calculate relative body fat, the fat content of 21 captive female rhesus macaques was estimated. Although age and. pregnancy had no effect on fat, rank was significant, especially during winter, with high-rank females having the highest fat scores. Rank therefore has a significant effect on the health of captive animals and may also affect the health of individuals in feral groups.
