    In baboons, the more mature and dominant males mate most repetitively with the most receptive females at peak swelling. Young males get access to mate, though much less frequently, and only within the confines of female baboon mating strategy, which advantages non-conceptive mounting as a defense against them.

Females succumb to copulation to get males to cease signaling to predators.
