What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Social science
- Zoology
His primary areas of study are Demography, National park, Troglodytes, Evolutionary biology and Aggression.
John C. Mitani combines subjects such as Pongidae, Social psychology, Weaning and Fecundity with his study of Demography.
The concepts of his Pongidae study are interwoven with issues in Primate, Affect and Social group.
National park is the subject of his research, which falls under Ecology.
His Troglodytes research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Social relation, Bonobo, Pan paniscus and Kinship.
His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Zoology and Generation time.
His most cited work include:
- Generation times in wild chimpanzees and gorillas suggest earlier divergence times in great ape and human evolution (351 citations)
- Why do chimpanzees hunt and share meat (319 citations)
- The limited impact of kinship on cooperation in wild chimpanzees (281 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
John C. Mitani mainly focuses on Ecology, National park, Animal ecology, Demography and Zoology.
His National park research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Abundance, Predation, Troglodytes, Foraging and Frugivore.
His research in Troglodytes tackles topics such as Kinship which are related to areas like Sibling.
His Animal ecology study incorporates themes from Estrous cycle, Home range, Anthropology, Primate and Reproductive success.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Social relation, Dominance, Sociality and Aggression in addition to Demography.
His work in the fields of Mating overlaps with other areas such as Trade offs.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
John C. Mitani mostly deals with Demography, Young adult, Trade offs, Life history and Zoology.
He has included themes like Troglodytes, Menopause and Mating in his Demography study.
His Troglodytes research incorporates elements of Range, Mortality rate, Predation, Young adult male and National park.
His study in Young adult is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Animal ecology, Adult male and Aggression.
John C. Mitani has researched Aggression in several fields, including Dominance and Primate.
His studies deal with areas such as Immune system and Colonization as well as Zoology.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
