“…The frequency of playful behavior typically declines as juveniles transition into adulthood, although adults may maintain playful relationships with juveniles (e.g., geladas, Theropithecus gelada : Mancini & Palagi, 2009 ; chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes : Palagi et al, 2004 ; Shimada & Sueur, 2014 ). Less frequently, adult-adult play can occur in some primate species in both sexual and non-sexual contexts ( Pellis & Iwaniuk, 1999 ; T. gelada : Mancini & Palagi, 2009 ; bonobos, P. paniscus : Palagi, 2006 ; ring-tailed lemurs, Lemur catta : Palagi, 2009 ; Pellis & Iwaniuk, 2000 ; P. troglodytes : Yamanashi et al, 2018 ) but may exhibit variable forms and functions in species with different social organization. In primates, e.g., Macaca spp., social organization exerts a pervasive influence on a variety of behaviors, including play ( Ciani et al, 2012 ; Fagen, 1981 ; Maestripieri, 2004 ; Thierry, 2007 ).…”
