Many mammals (including non-human primates) feed on forest plantations. Capuchin monkeys(Sapajus nigritus) bark-strip tree pines to consume their phloem, which may lead to the death ofthese trees. Using ecological predictive models, we designed a sampling procedure to evaluatepine consumption by capuchins in the Atlantic Forest of Misiones, Argentina, and factorsassociated with its occurrence. The application of these types of models helps to develop integratedmanagement strategies for forest plantations, providing a tool for productive planning and, in turn,the conservation of a primate species categorized as vulnerable at the national level.
