Poole, T. B.

Abstract

Four of them [guidelines] are compared and it is clear that there is little consistency with regard to spatial allowances or suitable temperature and humidity ranges. Often the cage sizes quoted are incompatible with requirements to meet the behavioural needs of the animals.Abstract of this work has been published in: XIVth Congress of the International Primatological Society, Abstracts: 33, 1992; Poole TB; Guidelines and legal codes for the welfare of non-human primates in biomedical research.
