Optimal foraging theory predicts effects of environmental enrichment in a group of adult golden lion tamarins (1998)

Rapaport, L. G.

Abstract

Given the lack of habituation, the apparatus designed for this study could be used for regular captive golden tamarin environmental enrichment. However, because devices that increase foraging time also tend to increase rates of aggression, a prudent approach would be to furnish more than one extractive foraging device per group.
