The putatively high‐altitude adaptation of macaque monkeys: Evidence from the fecal metabolome and gut microbiome

Abstract Animals living in high‐altitude environments, such as the Tibetan Plateau, must face harsh environmental conditions (e.g., hypoxia, cold, and strong UV radiation). These animals' physiological adaptations (e.g., increased red cell production and turnover rate) might also be associated...
