Environments are not homogeneous or stable, even on small spatial and temporal scales. Rather, abiotic and biotic components of the environment can change and impact one another in major ways and lead to long-term shifts in the stable states of ecosystems. In this thesis I examine how environmental changes impact non-human primate populations. To this end I use historic long-term data and my own field-based studies in Uganda and the Côte d'Ivoire to provide insights into the cascading impacts environmental changes have on non-human primate behaviour, ecology and ultimately microorganism transmission. I find that changing climates and food availability have changed grouping behaviour in some species, and that these changes have cascading imp...
