Roush, R. S., Burkhardt, R., Converse, L. et al. 1992. Comment on 'Are alarming events good for captive monkeys?'. Applied Animal Behaviour Science 33, 291-293.

The paper by Chamove and Moodie (Applied Animal Behaviour Science 27, 167-176, 1990) 'Are alarming events good for captive monkeys?' concludes that the capture and exposure to predators improves the behavioral well-being of captive cotton-top tamarins (Saguinus oedipus oedipus). We question the assumptions and conclusions of the paper on several ground. .... Repeated capture of socially living cotton-top tamarins should not be used for psychological enrichment. .... Alarming events have severe negative effects on captive cotton-top tamarins.
