• Socioecological influences on the reproductive success of female mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) (2007, background): “2006), and rank improves with age (Robbins et al. 2005), so we examine whether primiparous mothers are responsible for any apparent effects of rank.”
• Social relationships and reproductive state influence leadership roles in movements of plains zebra, Equus burchellii (2007, unknown): “Mountain gorillas, Gorilla gorilla beringei, are an example of an animal society in which group decision making is despotic: the dominant male usually leads group movements (Schaller 1963) and females form long-term dominance hierarchies (Robbins et al. 2005).”
