20、twas not an option for me.So,I tried to let go of the idea of continuing my education.Later I learned from my adviser that many programs not only cover tuition,but also offer scholarship.My dreambecame a possibility again.Then came the next problem:figuring out how to apply.I fell into a rabbit hole

27、ding most timeon the ground and had an incredibly diverse diet.He wondered whether habitat reduction and limited food resourceavailability were driving them move to the ground.This inspired him to begin this study.He reached out to every researcher he could find who may have significant data on prim
28、ates from Madagascar ortheAmericas,the two places with almost all tree-dwelling primates.Eppley examined more than 150,000 hours of data observed on 32 monkey species and 15 lemur species at 68sites.He found that they spent an average of only 2.5%of their time on the ground each month.But the findin
29、gsshowed some interesting differences.“As habitats are degraded and the climate worsens,primates that are flexible enough to adapt because of theirdiverse diets or live in larger groups may be more likely to shift to life on the ground,”Eppley says.“However,otherspecies that rely on fruit diets or l
30、ive in small groups are less adaptable and are less willing to leave the tree.For thesespecies,we will still need to enforce fast and effective conservation strategies to ensure their survival.”Although moving to the ground has some advantages in certain situations,primates can face problems when th
31、eyleave the trees.They can become victims of other animals and diseases.Besides,they will be faced with findingappropriate food resources on the ground,thus having a broad or flexible diet is important.Primates are importantseed spreaders within their forest habitats.The loss of primates would lead

36、tended range.Another benefit of e-bikes over e-cars is that theyare fun.This apparently makes them the most“attractive”form of an electric vehicle.In North America,we often need a car to go around,but in Germany,just over half of the e-bike users managedto do so.However,68%of these e car users did,p
37、robably“due to the ability to transport larger items”.Perhaps the most interesting numbers are those for the distance travelled.E-bikes are used for trips with a lengthof 15 kilometers,significantly less than the 25 kilometer trip length for the e-cars but still a big number for a bike trip.The stud
38、y stated,“E-bikes are already the most commonly used means of electric transportation in Germany.”This is good news for North America,which has fallen behind European countries in e-bike uptake.The U.S.Office of Energy Efficiency said,“Data collected on one-way household trips show that 59.4%of vehi
