| PRIMATE VOCALIZATION |
| LIKE HUMANS OTHER PRIMATES ARE UNABLE TO PRODUCE COMPLEX VOCALIZATION RESULTING IN LANGUAGE. BUT THEY PRODUCE A NUMBER OF SIMPLE CALLS FOR COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THEM. ALONG WITH BODY POSTURE AND FACIAL GESTURES. THE WAST ARRAY OF BEHAVIOURAL REPERTOIR SHOWN BY ANTHROPOIDEA SUBCLASS IS AMAZING. DETAIL TABULATION OF ANY APE OR MONKEY'S VOCAL AND GESTURES ARE LACKING EXCEPT FOR SOME CHARATERIZATION IN HIGHER APES , WHO HAVE BEEN EXTENSIVELY STUDIED. OTHER THAN THESE, RHESUS MACAQUE IS THE MOST STUDIED PRIMATE. BUT MOST OF THESE STUDIES HAS VERTUALLY SIDELINED ANY EFFORT IN UNDERSTANDING COMMUNICATION (SEE ROWELL AND HINDE). SOME FIELD STUDIES UNDERTAKEN IN INDIA ( Southwick, Lindburg) DID HAVE ILLUSTRATED MUCH OF RHESUS BEHAVIOUR BUT STILL A LOTS NEED TO BE DONE. THE WORK DONE IN VARIOUS CAGED SITUATION STILL DO NOT SATISFY AUTHENTICITY OF NATURAL BEHAVIOUR AS STRESS AND ISOLATION (IN MOST CASES) RESTRICT BEHAVIOUR DEVELOPMENT. AND THIS HAS BEEN UTILIZED IN STUDY OF EFFECT OF RESTRICTRED ENVIRONMENTS. |
