Primate resting postures : an adaptation to mammalian herbivory?
The functional separation of different particle sizes in the gut of an herbivorous primate is important, as faster excretion of large particles reduces the intake-limitation posed by the long microbial fermentation of plant. This separation functions only along a gravity gradient, therefore, a prima...
