Crab-eating macaque findings. One of the most well known examples of experiments on crab-eating macaques is the 1981 Silver Spring monkeys case. In 2014, 21,768 crab-eating macaques were imported in the United States to be used in experimentation. The crab-eating macaque has the third-largest range of any primate species, behind only humans and rhesus macaques. The IUCN Red List categorizes the species as Least Concern, and CITES lists them as Appendix II ("not necessarily threatened with extinction", in which trade must be controlled to avoid use incompatible with their survival). A recent review of their populations suggests a need for better monitoring

It has been suggested that the human brain is itself a product of sexual selection, i.e. it has developed as a sexual ornamentation to be used in courtship rather than for survival itself, and that it has developed in ways outlined by Ronald Fisher
