Last week, Lisa Ohrndorf defended her thesis on the Movement Ecology of wild Guinea baboons with an excellent presentation. She combined phenology data, camera trap data and GPS waypoints to see in which way food availability and predator presence affected the fission-fusion dynamics of the baboons

Next came William O'Hearn, also known as "Will" - he gave a superb presentation of his work on the attribution of competence in wild Guinea baboons, using a combination of field experimentation and analyses of long-term data on meat-sharing.Wil
