Abstract

Frugivorous primates play a key role in the regeneration of tropical forests, ecosystems that have been heavily deforested and altered, by dispersing viable seeds via endozoochory. Due to their highly contingent and site-specific behavioural and ranging responses to habitat change, simulation models can help to better understand the consequences of different environmental contexts on their seed dispersal services.
