Effects of cage configuration on behavior in cynomolgus macaques (1996)

Watson, S. L., Shively, C. A.

Abstract

Stereotypies occurred more often in the STD [standard single cage] than in the VE [vertically-enhanced; probably with perche(s)]. ... The results indicate that VE cages provide more suitable individual housing environments for nonhuman primates than STD cages.
