The purpose of this study is to further investigate whether the same events occurred in nonhuman primates.

They discovered that when left to their own devices, the primates ate on different schedules, with many consuming most of their food in the evenings and late at night. There turned out to be no correlation between weight gain and the time of feeding.

研究发现，如果放任这些灵长目动物自主进食，它们的进食都偏向分布在晚间或深夜，并且体重的增加和进食时间没什么关系。

Also there exist several researches which specialize in the similarity-based representation, but the research objects are the brain mechanism on primates.

What may be of greater importance is to observe how primates live in the wild.

有较大意义的可能是观察灵长目动物在野外的生活情况。

Among primates, Homo sapiens practice the most intensive food and resource sharing, and females may depend entirely on males for shelter and sustenance.

在灵长目动物中，智人会进行程度最大的粮食和资源分享，而在住所和食物方面，雌性智人或许会完全依赖雄性。

You name it-tool use, tool making, culture, food sharing, theory of mind, planning, empathy, inferential reasoning-it has all been observed in wild primates or, better yet, many of these capacities have been demonstrated in carefully controlled experiments.

你能想到的所有技能——使用工具、制造工具、形成文化、分享食物、心智理论、计划、共情、推理——都已经在野生灵长目动物身上观察到。更进一步，许多还可以在严格控制的动物实验中演示出来。

Human vision like that of other primates has evolved in an arboreal environment.

人类的视觉，和其它灵长目动物的一样，是在丛林环境中进化出来的。

The tails of primates are essentially designed th give them balance when leaping through trees, but many species gradually use their tails to make a statement.

灵长目动物的尾巴基本上是为了使其在树之间跳跃时保持身体平衡的，但是许多物种开始逐渐用尾巴来进行交流。

Pigeons have now shown that they can learn abstract rules about numbers, an ability that until now had been demonstrated only in primates.

近来人们研究发现，鸽子能学习抽象的数字规则，而这项能力目前为止仅在灵长目动物身上得以证实。

Primate studies show that giving an S.S.R.I. can augment social dominance behaviors, elevating an animal's status in the hierarchy.

灵长目动物的研究表明，SSRI能增强社会支配行为，提高动物在社会阶层中的地位。

Of mammals only humans and some primates enjoy color vision.The red flag is black to the bull. Horses live in a monochrome world.

在哺乳类动物中，只有人和一些灵长目动物能够分辨颜色。红旗在公牛看来是黑色的，马则生活在一个单色的世界里。

On this basis, the essay makes some related comparisons between it and many primates.

在此基础上与部分灵长目动物作相关的比较。

Animal experiments have found that the non-human primates, premotor cortex, sensorimotor area, frontal, parietal and temple operculum, orbitofrontal cortex and cingulate cortex are associated with swallowing function.

In this case, the animals were lemurs – a type of primate related to monkeys and apes.

在此项案例中，被实验的动物是狐猴，这是一种与猴子，猿有关的灵长目动物。
