The burning question in baboon research

Prof. Fischer shared her opinions in the "burning questions in the baboon research". Can we understand the bigger picture?

🐒 Co-Evolution of Traits:
How do different traits within baboon societies evolve together? Tackling this complex puzzle requires understanding feedback dynamics, including decision-making, behavioral control, motor planning, and perception.

🌍 Beyond Socio-Ecological Models:
While the socio-ecological model has been influential, it can’t explain evolutionary dynamics fully. What other variables shape the evolution of baboon societies? 🤔🌿 Can population density be a crucial player?
