Uakaris are interesting creatures, and their social structures are just as fascinating. In the wild, Uakaris typically form small groups of around 4-5 individuals. These groups often have a loose hierarchy, with a clear alpha male or female leading the pack. The alpha is generally the biggest and strongest member of the group, and has first choice when it comes to food or mating opportunities. The other members of the group usually defer to the alpha’s decisions, but there is typically some room for disagreement and negotiation.
