Identifying agonistic and affiliative social interactions - hamadryas baboons
Agonistic interactions can include overt aggressive behaviors such as chasing, biting, hitting, or threat displays such as growling or showing of canine teeth. However, other aggressive behaviors can be subtle such as a displacement, where one individual approaches a second individual, and the second individual retreats. Affiliative behavior in primates can include grooming, sitting in close proximity to one another, or exchange of friendly gestures.
