Just out! Beyond the + link b/w hunting & body mass in non-human primates 🐒, closely related species share similar hunting risk with important regional diffs (e.g. American tropics vs Asia) suggesting diff cultural practices.
Thanks @liomys.mx for the lead and the intl team for the collab 👇

How is hunting distributed across the primate phylogeny and how is this influencing extinction risk?

Globally, hunting is a significant threat to non-human primates, potentially increasing their risk of extinction. Larger-bodied and more evolutionarily distinct species are at higher risk, although s...
