معرفی
Christopher Mowry is a Professor of Biology at Berry College, where he specializes in ecology and conservation biology. His research focuses on the feeding ecology of nonhuman primates, particularly leaf-eaters, and the biology of coyotes (Canis latrans). He holds a B.A. from Wake Forest University and an M.S. and Ph.D. from Emory University.
Education
- B.A., Wake Forest University
- M.S. and Ph.D., Emory University
Research Interests
Mowry’s work explores how animals select diets based on nutritional needs and environmental constraints. Key areas include:
- Feeding strategies of folivorous primates and their chemical adaptations
- Urban coyote ecology, including community science-driven studies
- Conservation of Old World primates and biodiversity in fragmented ecosystems
Research Trends
His recent publications emphasize urban wildlife dynamics (e.g., coyote behavior in Atlanta) and primate dietary adaptations. Long-term projects in Kenya and Georgia highlight plant-animal interactions and conservation challenges.
