There are a considerable numbers of surplus animals; the Mandrill EEP is seeking for new holders with new and large facilities. In the past few years
few institutions were interested in this species, but they decided to keep drills in the end.
The other very important issue of the whole program is the SIV problem. Unfortunately only a very small part of the whole population has been tested
so far. In the last two years several transfers were cancelled due to positive SIV results. All mandrill holders are requested to test their population as
we need much more information about the SIV status of the whole population to make much better management plans and to give transfer
recommendations in the future.
