This study examined the reproductive performance of rhesus macaques maintained in two different housing conditions: high-density semi-sheltered gang cages and low-density outdoor corrals. Two hundred sixteen subjects were housed in 49 gang cages, each of which contained one breeding male and between

## Abstract Indian‐origin rhesus macaques (__Macaca mulatta__) have long served as an animal model for the study of human disease and behavior. Given the current shortage of Indian‐origin rhesus, many researchers have turned to rhesus macaques from China as a substitute. However, a number of studie

Life history theory suggests that reproduction at one point in time involves costs in terms of energy, reduced survival, or probability of reproduction at a future point in time. In long-lived iteroparous organisms, initiating reproduction at a relatively young age may exact a cost in terms of reduc

## Abstract The development of self‐biting behavior in captive monkeys is little understood and poses a serious risk to their well‐being. Although early rearing conditions may influence the expression of this behavior, not all animals reared under similar conditions self‐bite. The purpose of this s
