Zusammenfassung: | Two cases of predation on Galagos by free-ranging blue monkeys (Cercopithecus mitis stuhlmanni ) are described. C. mitis is only the second species of the genus Cercopithecus known to prey on mammals. "Wadging," the intermixing and chewing of leaves with meat, is reported for the first time in a primate other than the chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes ). Meat-sharing was not observed in C. mitis . |
