and from a drill, a monkey species that lives in tiny, dwindling pockets of west Africa.

For instance, a recent study found that making a chimeric rhesus monkey oe a process needed to resurrect a monkey species from frozen cells oe is much trickier than a mouse."

Instead of short climbing walls, there should be towering monkey bars. Instead of plastic crawl tubes, there should be tall, steep slides.

So far Mitalipov and his colleagues have not been able to grow a cloned monkey fetus to term suggesting that primate reproduction may be even more complex than what is known from Dolly the sheep and other farm animals.

The cloning of a monkey or other nonhuman primate would likely be a strong signal that it's time to set some rules around human cloning Cibelli said.

Thirteen states currently have laws on the books prohibiting reproductive cloning. A worst-case scenario would be a clone showing up on the scene before the legalities are hammered out Knoepfler said.

Smartphones tablets and chimps On the other side of the world the Jane Goodall Institute an ape-conservation organization founded by renowned chimpanzee researcher Jane Goodall is leading a similar effort.

Video Jane Goodall's Wild Chimpanzees The monitors look for signs of human activity that could endanger wildlife

The villagers also document the presence of more than 20 species with a focus on chimpanzees for instance

Then through Google earth Engine and Google maps Engine the institute's researchers can visualize the multiple layers of data to model the suitability of chimpanzee habitat

and to predict the potential distribution of chimpanzees. Whereas traditional maps are limited to two dimensions Google earth's 3d high-resolution imagery makes it easier for the villagers to recognize the topography

Through this data-collection process the JGI has identified previously unknown threats to chimpanzees. Even in the first few weeks of a forest villager getting his smartphone he reported this trap designed to capture a live primate we think either a baboon

or a chimp and this trap had never been recorded before in Tanzania Pintea said. In the future Pintea hopes to use imagery of the region gathered over the years to track changes in the forests over time.

Primate carriers Vietnam Airlines said on 19 april that it will no longer transport primates used in research experiments, effective from 1 may.

It was one of the last major carriers to transport primates for research: only Air france and Philippine Airlines say that they still do so.

#Monkey teeth help reveal Neanderthal weaningmost modern human mothers wean their babies much earlier than our closest primate relatives.

and from monkeys at the California National Primate Research center at the University of California Davis. Using the new technique the researchers concluded that at least one Neanderthal baby was weaned at much the same age as most modern humans.

Just as tree rings record the environment in which a tree grew traces of barium in the layers of a primate tooth can tell the story of

what age it was weaned said Katie Hinde professor of human evolutionary biology at Harvard university and an affiliate scientist at the UC Davis Primate Center.

and behavior among rhesus macaques at UC Davis. The team was able to determine exact timing of birth

By studying monkey teeth and comparing them to center records they could show that the technique was accurate almost to the day.

The technique opens up extensive opportunities to further investigate lactation in fossils and museum collections of primate teeth.

Yet recent investigations of wild chimpanzees have shown that the first molar eruption occurs toward the end of weaning.

By applying these new techniques to primate teeth in museum collections we can more precisely assess maternal investment across individuals within species as well as life history evolution among species Hinde said.
