T-W-Fiennes RN 1972. Primates - General. In The UFAW Handbook on the Care andManagement of Laboratory Animals Fourth Edition Universities Federation for Animal Welfare(ed), 374-375. Churchill Livingstone, London, UK“Chimpanzees and baboons, are intelligent and sensitive. If handled with sympathy andunderstanding they can become more than research tools - even cooperative partners inexperimentation. To achieve this, a little time .. must be spent on conditioning the animals. Achimpanzee, for instance, will sit quietly and hold his arm out for a blood sample to be taken. ...An animal treated unsympathetically is liable to become aggressive and uncooperative;furthermore, unless care is taken over its comfort and needs, it is liable to become stressed andthe results of the experiment may be vitiated for this reason."(3,2) Species-specific RecommendationsBaboons (Papio spp.)Levison PK, Fester CB, Nieman WH, Findley JD 1964. A method for training unrestrainedprimates to receive drug injection. Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior 7, 253-254Training technique by which an adult, single-housed male baboon learned to offer his armthrough a pothole and accept intramuscular injection in this home cage is described and theresult demonstrated with a photo. Injection was reliably obtained after approximately nine onehourtraining sessions.Turkkan JS, Ator NA, et al 1989. Beyond chronic catheterization in laboratory primates. InHousing, Care and Psychological Well-being of Captive and Laboratory Primates Segal EF (ed),305-322. Noyes Publications, Park Ridge, NJTraining protocols are described to ensure cooperation of single-housed baboons during bloodpressure measurement and during oral drug dosing in the homecage.Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes)Bloomsmith MA, Laule GE, Alford PL, Thurston RH 1994. Using training to moderatechimpanzee aggression during feeding. Zoo Biology 13, 557-566"Positive reinforcement training techniques were applied to reduce a dominant malechimpanzee's aggression and chasing during meals. Verbal commands and food reinforcers wereused to train him to sit and remain seated while other group members received and ate theirshare of produce."Bloomsmith MA, Stone AM, Laule GE 1998. Positive reinforcement training to enhance thevoluntary movement of group-housed chimpanzees within their enclosure. Zoo Biology 17, 333-341Positive reinforcement was applied to train groups of chimpanzees to move voluntarily into theindoor portions of their enclosures at the request of trainers and to be briefly restricted to thoseareas.Kessel-Davenport AL, Gutierrez T 1994.
