Fissioning minimizes ranging costs in spider monkeys: a multiple-level approach (2009, unknown): “When the results of Kruskal–Wallis tests were significant, post hoc multiple comparisons were carried out following Siegel and Castellan (1988) .”
Greetings promote cooperation and reinforce social bonds among spotted hyaenas (2011, methodology): “with resident herds (Holekamp et al. 1996; Höner et al. 2005; Smith et al. 2008).”
Fission‐Fusion Dynamics (2008, result): “For example, and consistent with Kerth, Ebert, and Schmidtke’s (2006) findings in bats, the high degree of fissionfusion dynamics permits another nonprimate species, the spotted hyena, to directly benefit the interests of the departing individuals (Smith et al. 2008).”
