Here you’ll see how decades of insight from veterinarians, animal care staff, and behaviorists were gleaned and translated into housing, breeding, and growth solutions that are safe, enduring, fun, and support the wellbeing and natural behaviors of NHPs. Presenters examine design and operating challenges that were overcome while maintaining 24/7 choice for animals including indoors/outdoors accessibility, as well as socialization and family group options. They highlight what’s been provided to enable animal care staff observation of breeding and research, and efficient workspace for wellness checks and minor health procedures.
