Primatology

hypothesis that man and apes have common ancestry, the study of Primatology has been a main focus in the world of science. Wether or not the scientist were studying the relationship between ape and human or studying the basic way of life of apes, the study of Primatology has proven to be controversial and the subject of ridicule to its early pioneering scientists. In the past century, technology severely limited the study of primatology which means the scientist had to resort to gorilla tactics to

In The Shadows of Man by Jane Goodall Primatology is the scientific study of non-human primate behaviors among wild apes, monkeys and other related animals in natural settings or in laboratories by conducting lab experiments and studies on captive primates. A person who studies primatology is a primatologist. There are many reasons for studying primates, but possibly the most significant reason is to learn about the origins of humans. When studying primatology, one can easily observe the behavioral

The thrilling and wild animated movie Tarzan is a well know tale about the problem of harmful human interactions with primates. This movie set an example for one of the most determined and successful primatologist today. Jane Goodall was the most influential individual in the 20st century because of her affect on animals and the planet that human life needs to survive.

undergraduate degree, I plan on attending medical school and specializing in pathology to become a forensic pathologist for the FBI. Another option I am currently considering is minoring in Animal Science and pursuing a graduate degree in Zoology and Primatology. Since I am an out-of-state student with three brothers who have graduated or plan on attending college, the looming idea of the mass amounts of student loans I may accumulate is terrifying, but I am very grateful to be where I am today. I felt

Primatology has shown just how similar we are to non-human primates, who are capable of a lot more than we originally thought. From a young age primates learn from adults how to make and use tools to help them with hunting or doing a certain activity. For instance, it was stated in the textbook that Chimpanzees have been known to put long sticks into a termite hole, wait a few minutes, and then pull the stick out to eat the termites that attached to it. All of these require dexterity, which is often

Graduate school is the platform off which I plan to begin building a career as an established professor of primatology. My ultimate goal is to 1) become a professor who actively engages in researching the emerging questions in the field of primate feeding and nutritional ecology and 2) become a professor who can truly inspire students to pursue their curiosities by teaching them about the passionate pursuit of my own and those who came before me. Knowing my career goal would require obtaining a

appearances as a speaker, in London and later at Yale University, were considered by many to be the first appearance of primatology as a modern science” (Quallen 92). What she stated is one of Jane’s biggest accomplishments in her career as well as for presenting primatology as a modern science. This was Jane’s biggest achievement as well as an ethical representation for primatology, and a big advance in modern science. Accordingly, Jane has the incredible ability of shocking people and give them

outstanding curiousness and strong passion. Many researchers and scientists has barely achievements and publishes might due to their lack of the will of exploration and not willing to take risk to override the majority. In the time when “trimates” in primatology and African “trailblazers” in paleoanthropology discovered their own unique observations that the majority will disagree undoubtedly, as a passionate researcher, they continue their studies at their own risk and even risk their lives for their studies
