    "title": "Socially Situated Navigation: Social Rank and Sex Influence Spatial Navigation Strategies in Japanese Macaques",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Primates' social interactions are grounded in temporal and spatial\nrelationships, with physical proximity commonly used to assess\naffiliation, dominance, and tolerance. Yet proximity is often treated\nas a static, categorical measure rather than a dynamic, continuous\nprocess. Here, we combine computer vision and environmental\nmarkers to precisely quantify short-range social distances in two\ngroups of Japanese macaques housed in large outdoor enclosures.\nOur social tolerance test results show that, when entering a\nfood-baited circle, macaques positioned themselves at\ngreater-than-chance distances from conspecifics, particularly to\ndominants. Furthermore, lower-ranking individuals tended to\nfollow more indirect paths before approaching the food resource,\nsuggesting they weigh social risks alongside physical positioning.\nBy treating social proximity as a dynamic process, our study\nprovides new insights into how primates navigate social and\nphysical environments. This illustrates the potential of our method\nfor more nuanced measures of group organization, tolerance, and\ndecision-making.",
