Avoiding undue stress: Catching individual animals in groups of rhesus monkeys (1990)

Reinhardt, V.

Abstract

Training technique is described. We have successfully trained two heterogeneous rhesus troops of 28 and 33 members. The catching procedure has become a routine that is no longer associated with excitation and distress. It is now possible for one experienced person to catch animals at any given time without extra help.
