Resolution of aggressive conflicts by immature long-tailed macaques Macaca fascicularis

摘要: Abstract The behaviour following aggressive interactions differed from the friendly or neutral control among unrelated immature male Macaca fascicularis. Former opponents interacted again sooner and more often after aggression than a encounter. higher rate did not reflect general increase in social activity. characterizing encounters between former also two situations, with affiliative postconflict. In both however, most were initiated by higher-ranking aggressor. This pattern of is interpreted as repair mechanism for relationships strained (i.e. reconciliation). A similar was found related animals, though it occurred rarely non-kin.
