Quality diets for laboratory animals: primates
Non-human primates such as monkeys have biochemical and
physiological processes that are remarkably similar to that
of humans. These similarities make them an especially valuable
research animal species. Routine care, cleanliness and sunshine - as
well as a proper diet - are essential to maintaining a monkey's
welfare and ensuring reliable research results.
