Summary
In this chapter, I explore how the conflict-to-coexistence continuum framework plays out when comparing two distinct sites where humans and macaques interface: the river banks of the Silver River, Florida, USA where a feral, introduced population of rhesus macaques lives and the rural highlands of Central Sulawesi, Indonesia where people and Tonkean macaques share a long history of indigenous co-habitation. At first glance, these two locations stand in stark contrast to one another in a multitude of ways (e.g. geographic location, socio-cultural and economic context, and the 'naturalness' and root of the conflict). Whereas at the Silver River site, the primary conflict lies between various human stakeholders, in Sulawesi, Indonesia, conflict is real for farmers who endure daily raids by neighbouring Tonkean macaque groups. By exploring the continuum at each site, commonalities begin to emerge. Namely, there are diverse perspectives on the actuality and severity of the conflict at both sites. But, perhaps more importantly, both sites show elements that suggest that coexistence deriving from tolerance and compromise is possible.
