“…In general, anthropogenic changes to primate habitats impact primate populations by changing the availability, density, abundance, and distribution of plant species (Milich, Stumpf, Chambers, & Chapman, ) which in turn, can trigger a physiological stress response reflected in higher cortisol levels (e.g., Alouatta pigra (Arroyo‐Rodriguez & Dias, ; Martínez‐Mota, Valdespino, Sánchez‐Ramos, & Serio‐Silva, ), Piliocolobus tephrosceles (Chapman, Saj, & Snaith, ), L. catta (Cavigelli, ), P. troglodytes (Muller & Wrangham, ), Papio anubis (Sapolsky, )). For arboreal primates like howler monkeys, the potential stressors include terrestrial locomotion (an atypical situation that may increase susceptibility to predation) or increased human presence in the fragment (Rangel‐Negrín, Coyohua‐Fuentes, Chavira, Canales‐Espinosa, & Dias, ).…”
