Stereotypic behaviors in singly housed rhesus macaques are significantly reduced during aquarium viewing (2009)

Abstract

There was no habituation to the fish tank [1 hour per day for five days per week] during the 4-week exposure. We suggest that viewing aquaria containing fish can reduce stereotypic behavior in rhesus macaques.
