To investigate the relationship between monkey-human aggressive behaviors and age/sex classes of monkey (initiator) and human (recipient), by using all-occurrence sampling and continuous recording, we evaluated the monkey-human aggressive behaviors between macaques (Macaca thibetana) and tourists at Mt. Huangshan in two periods (Nov.-Dec.2008 and Apr.-May 2009). After we divide the aggression into three types according to the dangerous level to tourists, some significant patterns were observed.Our observations indicate that Tibetan macaques respond differently to human according to the age/sex classes involved. On one hand, We found that the adult male monkeys tend to be more aggressive than expected (P<0.01), while the adult female monkeys and immature monkeys participated in AGIII behaviors (threat) less than expected (P<0.01); On the other hand, The adult male human received more aggressive behaviors than expected (P<0.01), while the adult female human and child received less aggressive in AGIII behaviors (threat) (P<0.01). Our results provide not only a scientific basis for the management advice that adult male monkeys and adult male human should be given special attention, but also a good management model of Huangshan for other primate tourist exploring places.
为了研究猕猴与人类之间攻击行为与猕猴（发起者）和人类（接受者）的年龄/性别类别之间的关系，我们采用全事件抽样和连续记录的方法，在两个时间段（2008年11月至12月和2009年4月至5月）对黄山猕猴（藏酋猴）与游客之间的猕猴-人类攻击行为进行了评估。在根据对游客的危险程度将攻击行为分为三种类型后，我们观察到了一些显著模式。我们的观察结果表明，藏酋猴对人类的反应因所涉及的年龄/性别类别而异。一方面，我们发现成年雄性猕猴比预期更具攻击性（P<0.01），而成年雌性猕猴和未成年猕猴参与AGIII行为（威胁）的程度低于预期（P<0.01）；另一方面，成年男性人类受到的攻击行为比预期更多（P<0.01），而成年女性人类和儿童在AGIII行为（威胁）中受到的攻击较少（P<0.01）。我们的研究结果不仅为应特别关注成年雄性猕猴和成年男性人类这一管理建议提供了科学依据，也为其他灵长类动物旅游探索地提供了一个良好的黄山管理模式。
