re: howler monkey feces hurling:

I'm reading Jane Goodall's "The Chimpanzees of Gombe, Patterns of Behavior". That's where my info came from; it's the first book I've read of primate behavior. I've never read (or said) anything about howler monkeys (a more distant relation of you and me). Different primates have different habits, I suppose.

The basic commonalities between chimpanzee and human behavior, from what I've read so far, are:
1. territoriality
2. dominance hierarchies
3. grooming/touching/sex to reinforce social bonds
4. violence, to enforce control of females, territory, or status
