Parasitism of maternal investment selects for increased clutch size and brood reduction in a host (2005)
Journal Article
Cunningham, E. J., & Lewis, S. (2006). Parasitism of maternal investment selects for increased clutch size and brood reduction in a host. Behavioral ecology official journal of the International Society for Behavioral Ecology, 17(1), 126-131. https://doi.org/10.1093/beheco/arj006

The allocation of resources to young that will ultimately be left to die appears counterintuitive. Yet obligate brood reduction has evolved in a number of species, despite the waste of reproductive investment this may incur. Here we test whether broo...

Why chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) mothers are less gregarious than nonmothers and males: the infant safety hypothesis (2005)
Journal Article

Socialization of young is an important component of maternal care in social mammals. It is therefore perplexing that female chimpanzees with dependent offspring spend more time alone than females without dependent offspring, and than males. We propos...
