Cavallaro, J., Stevens Jr., R. W., Wilson, B. et al. 2017. Social housing pig tail macaques in repurposed chimpanzee enclosures. Laboratory Animal Science Professional 5(2) (June), 60-61.

As chimpanzees are retired from research, enclosures such as the Primadomes™ become available for repurposing for other monkey species. However, modifications are necessary to meet specific monkey species needs, and considerations for animal handling and enrichment must be included when modifying caging systems for various species. This article describes how two enclosures, which had been vacated, were repurposed for use with juvenile pigtail macaques (Macaca nemestrina).
