This research project will test a series of hypotheses about                    female mate choice among free.ranging provisioned rhesus macaques               at Cayo Santiago, Puerto Rico.  Specifically the researcher will                look at female preferences for lower as opposed to high ranking                 males. This will be the first project to look at female mate                    preferences:  earlier projects have centered on male choices.                                                                                                   This project will help eliminate the cultural biases that have                  led many primatologists to assume that female mate choice only                  reinforces the selective effects of male.male competition.  It                  will make female primates active participants in the reproductive               process.  An increase in our understanding of the range of                      adaptive reproductive strategies in primates will help physical                 anthropologists construct better models to explain primate and                  hominid evolution as well as increase our knowledge of primate                  social behavior.
