View article: Group traits moderate the relationship between individual social traits and fitness in gorillas
Group traits moderate the relationship between individual social traits and fitness in gorillas Open
Evidence across a broad range of disciplines has demonstrated how individuals’ social environments can impact their health, lifespan, reproduction, and ultimately their evolutionary fitness. Past research has primarily focused on either tr…

Multiple mechanisms for inbreeding avoidance used simultaneously in a wild ape Open
Mating with close kin can have considerable negative fitness consequences, which are expected to result in selective pressure for inbreeding avoidance mechanisms, such as dispersal, mate choice and post-copulatory biases. Captive studies h…

Social groups buffer maternal loss in mountain gorillas Open
Mothers are crucial for mammals’ survival before nutritional independence, but many social mammals reside with their mothers long after. In these species the social adversity caused by maternal loss later in life can dramatically reduce fi…

Inter‐group relationships influence territorial defence in mountain gorillas Open
Many species show territoriality, in which territory owners have exclusive or priority use of a region. In humans, tolerance of others within our space also depends greatly on our social relationships with them. This has been hypothesized …

Comparing measures of social complexity: larger mountain gorilla groups do not have a greater diversity of relationships Open
Social complexity reflects the intricate patterns of social interactions in societies. Understanding social complexity is fundamental for studying the evolution of diverse social systems and the cognitive innovations used to cope with the …

Hierarchical social modularity in gorillas Open
Modern human societies show hierarchical social modularity (HSM) in which lower-order social units like nuclear families are nested inside increasingly larger units. It has been argued that this HSM evolved independently and after the chim…

Western Gorilla Social Structure and Inter-Group Dynamics Open
The study of western gorilla social behaviour has primarily focused on family groups, with research on inter-group interactions usually limited to the interactions of a small number of habituated groups or those taking place in a single lo…
