10 months, providing the first long-term cardiac data in wild primates. The baboons showed strong circadian patterns in heart rate, heart rate variability, and activity. We also present data on one female who left her social group for unknown reasons; while alone she exhibited higher heart rate variability, lower activity, and evidence of disrupted sleep.
C_LIO_LIIn sum, physiologgers paired with low-energy methods of remote data retrieval are powerful tools for investigating physiology in wild animals on timescales that extend over many months, with minimal disruption to their behavior.
