Laterality of manual function in foraging and positional behavior in wild indri (Indri indri)

Article Abstract:

A research based on the idea that some prosimian species are good models in which to test certain postulates of the 'postural origins' theory proposed by MacNeilage and colleagues to explain the evolution of hand preference within the order Primates is done. The finding suggests that indri are at 'level 1 of laterality' in the classification framework proposed by McGrew and Marchant.
