ANTH 1212 Primatology Observations and Applications
An optional course for students taking
ANTH 1210 or for those who have previously taken
ANTH 1210 or an equivalent course at another institution. This course offers an enriched, hands-on learning experience beyond
ANTH 1210 in the study of non-human primates. By comparing and contrasting many varieties of primates in laboratory osteology applications, observing living primates in captive environments (zoos) and also in free range film studies (film), students will be able to assess our most closely related species and gain an appreciate for the differences and similarities seen in primates as they pertain to the study of human origins both anatomically and behaviorally.
