The patterns of these associations can be relatively stable across time. Here we investigate whether dyadic social relationships between the sexes transcend mere association in wild Assamese macaques and may be characterized as strong, equitable, and stable affiliative relationships or social bonds. We collected >9,000 hr of focal animal data on adult males and females from two groups of wild Assamese macaques (Macaca assamensis) at Phu Khieo Wildlife Sanctuary, Thailand. Using dyadic composite sociality indices, we found male–female affiliative relationships to be highly differentiated. The stronger the relationships were, the more likely partners were to reciprocate grooming and the more stable were the relationships. In addition, the strongest dyadic relationships remained stable over multiple years as long as both partners remained in the group. These results indicate that in a polygynous species particular males and females form strong, equitable, and enduring affiliative relationships qualitatively similar to the same-sex bonds described for female baboons and male chimpanzees.

The antiharassment hypothesis provides one explanation for why such relationships have evolved in some gregarious primates: it states that females receive less aggression from group members in the presence of a male partner and gain his support when being harassed by others. This lowers the costs of competition and increases the female's access to resources, as it also reduces interruptions to feeding. Our aim was to test this hypothesis by investigating the benefits that wild female Assamese macaques, Macaca assamensis, in Thailand derive from bonding with particular males. In support of the antiharassment hypothesis, we found that the strength of affiliative relationships lowered the aggressiveness of a male towards a female, and predicted how much support a female received from a particular male in agonistic interactions with other group members. Additionally, relationship strength predicted the time that females spent co-feeding with a particular male as well as her feeding efficiency in the presence of that male. Hence, female Assamese macaques benefit from forming a social bond with a particular male by reducing the costs of competition."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.anbehav.2017.01.008"],["dc.identifier.gro","3151076"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/7846"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.issn","0003-3472"],["dc.title","Social bonds with males lower the costs of competition for wild female Assamese macaques"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
