Abstract

We review the evidence that long-tailed macaques are at risk of extinction and find that papers supporting this argument present no data supporting a hypothesized decline in abundance. These papers contain numerous misrepresentations of the published literature. Long-tailed macaques thrive in human-altered habitats, are listed by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature as an invasive species of concern, and have shown the ability to increase by 7%–10% per year from low numbers, making the probability of extinction very low.

长尾猕猴面临灭绝的危险吗？

我们回顾了长尾猕猴面临灭绝风险的证据，发现支持这一论点的论文没有提供任何数据支持假设的数量下降。这些论文包含大量对已发表文献的错误表述。长尾猕猴在人类改变的栖息地中茁壮成长，被国际自然保护联盟列为受关注的入侵物种，并显示出从低数量每年增加 7%-10% 的能力，因此灭绝的可能性非常低。

期刊介绍： The objective of the American Journal of Primatology is to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and findings among primatologists and to convey our increasing understanding of this order of animals to specialists and interested readers alike. Primatology is an unusual science in that its practitioners work in a wide variety of departments and institutions, live in countries throughout the world, and carry out a vast range of research procedures. Whether we are anthropologists, psychologists, biologists, or medical researchers, whether we live in Japan, Kenya, Brazil, or the United States, whether we conduct naturalistic observations in the field or experiments in the lab, we are united in our goal of better understanding primates. Our studies of nonhuman primates are of interest to scientists in many other disciplines ranging from entomology to sociology.
