Social and ecological determinants of fission-fusion dynamics in the spotted hyaena (2008, background): “Virtually all males permanently disperse from their natal clans after puberty, whereas females are philopatric (Mills 1990; Smale et al. 1997; East & Hofer 2001).”
INDIVIDUAL VARIATION IN SPACE USE BY FEMALE SPOTTED HYENAS (2003, background): “Female hyenas are generally philopatric, whereas most males disperse shortly after puberty (East and Hofer 2001; Frank 1986b; Henschel and Skinner 1987; Holekamp and Smale 1998; Smale et al. 1993, 1997).”
Sexual selection in females (2009, background): “…for example, in spotted hyaenas, Crocuta crocuta, the rank of females is closely related to the survival of their offspring and adult females show elevated testosterone levels in the later stages of pregnancy (Racey & Skinner 1979; Frank 1997; Holekamp & Smale 2000; East & Hofer 2001; Drea 2007).”
Behavioral processes and costs of co-existence in female spotted hyenas: a life history perspective (2003, background): “Serengeti clans were stable multi-female, multi-male fission–fusion groups that consisted of approximately 45 members, and contained similar numbers of natal adult females and immigrant adult males (Hofer and East, 1993b; East and Hofer, 2001).”
Kin discrimination in the spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta): nepotism among siblings (2004, background): “Virtually all males disperse from their natal groups, but females are philopatric (Mills 1990; Smale et al. 1997; East and Hofer 2001).”
Greetings promote cooperation and reinforce social bonds among spotted hyaenas (2011, background): “Virtually all males permanently disperse from their natal clans after puberty, but females are philopatric (Mills 1990; Smale et al. 1997; East & Hofer 2001; Höner et al. 2007).”
Extended safe havens and between-group dispersal of helpers in a cooperatively breeding cichlid (2005, background): “By migrating to another group, subordinates might increase their fitness if (1) they are able to participate in reproduction thereby avoiding inbreeding depression (Whittingham et al., 1997; Baglione et al., 2002), (2) the target group contains a smaller subordinate queue for the breeding position, ”
A comparison of innovative problem-solving abilities between wild and captive spotted hyaenas, Crocuta crocuta (2013, background): “Furthermore, high-ranking wild individuals have far better access to food resources in thewild than do their low-ranking counterparts (Frank 1986; East & Hofer 2001).”
The lemur syndrome unresolved: extreme male reproductive skew in sifakas (Propithecus verreauxi), a sexually monomorphic primate with female dominance (2008, background): “2005) or spotted hyenas (East and Hofer 2001), but adult mortality rates are low, and sifaka life span may reach up to 30 years (Richard et al.”
Rank-related partner choice in the fission–fusion society of the spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) (2007, unknown): “Immigrant males queue for rank, with their social status increasing within the male hierarchy as they gain tenure in the clan (Smale et al. 1997; East and Hofer 2001).”
Altered behaviour in spotted hyenas associated with increased human activity (2003, background): “The literature on basic ecology of mammalian carnivores (e.g. Gittleman & Harvey, 1982) suggests that, if growing human populations negatively affect habitat quality for carnivores, then increasing human activity should be associated with increased home-range size and energy expenditure, and with…”
