“…If the energy required by the organisms to deal with their routine or with unpredictable events (allostatic load) exceeds the energy they can acquire from the environment, the levels of hormones associated with energy mobilization, such as glucocorticoids (GCs), usually raise to initiate physiological and behavioral changes that promote survival (Sapolsky, Romero, & Munck, 2000;McEwen & Wingfield, 2007;Wingfield & Ramenofsky, 1999). That is why energy intake shortages have been associated with high levels of GCs in several primate species (Alouatta pigra: Behie, Pavelka, & Chapman, 2010;Lemur catta: Cavigelli, 1999;Pan troglodytes: Muller & Wrangham, 2004;Papio anubis: Sapolsky, 1986;Papio ursinus: Weingrill, Gray, Barrett, & Henzi, 2004) and correlated with travel distance (Di Fiore & Suarez, 2007;Girard & Garland, 2002).…”
