  1. 1. Cognition in black-handed spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi): A battery of behavioral tests

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Författare :Tiffany Claire Bosshard; [2020]
    Nyckelord :cognition; behavior; object permanence; associative learning; quantity discrimination; numerosity; long-term memory; spider monkey;

    Sammanfattning : Cognition allows animals to acquire, process, and store sensory information from the environment and use it to adapt to their surroundings. A battery of behavioral tests was used to assess the cognitive abilities of black-handed spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi). LÄS MER

  2. 2. Training of spider monkeys in a food-rewarded two-choice olfactory discrimination paradigm and assessment of olfactory learning and memory performance

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Biologi

    Författare :Emmi Aineslahti; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Ateles geoffroyi; behavioral testing; discrimination learning; odor memory; olfaction; olfactory discrimination; olfactory learning; spider monkey;

    Sammanfattning : There is little knowledge about olfactory learning in primates, even though primates are known to use olfaction in several behaviors including food selection and territorial defense. Therefore I assessed the olfactory learning and memory performance in five adult spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi) using a food-rewarded two-choice olfactory discrimination paradigm. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Enrichment for Colombian black spider monkeys (Ateles fusciceps rufiventris) in a zoo

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Författare :Tina Torstensson; [2009]
    Nyckelord :enrichment; berikning; colombian; black; spider; monkey; zoo; ateles; fusciceps; rufiventris; colombiansk; svart; spindelapa; branch; ball; ice; block; food; puzzle; behaviour; behavior;

    Sammanfattning : The Colombian black spider monkey (Ateles fusciceps rufiventris) is critically endangered. The wild population is still decreasing and today there are no records of the actual population size. Enrichment makes the animals keep their natural behaviours, which makes an eventual reintroduction to nature easier. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Client-side threats and a honeyclient-based defense mechanism, Honeyscout

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Institutionen för systemteknik

    Författare :Christian Clementson; [2009]
    Nyckelord :Client security; network security; malware; virus; honeypot; honeyclient; capture-hpc; monkey-spider; honeyscout;

    Sammanfattning : Client-side computers connected to the Internet today are exposed to a lot malicious activity. Browsing the web can easily result in malware infection even if the user only visits well known and trusted sites. Attackers use website vulnerabilities and ad-networks to expose their malicious code to a large user base. LÄS MER

  5. 5. A literature review of the spider monkey, Ateles sp., with special focus on risk for extinction
