Revolutionary Care Approach Enhances Well-being of Captive Macaques.
The article discusses how pigtail macaques at a research center are cared for using a program that combines medical treatment with social needs. The program includes socializing animals during medical care, training them with positive reinforcement, ensuring proper identification and medication distribution, and treating them within their social groups. The program has been successful, with almost all hospitalized animals being paired socially and most clinical cases being treated within social groups. This approach aims to reduce stress for the animals during medical care and other procedures, providing a comprehensive way to manage their medical and behavioral needs.
