The ManyPrimates project was initiated to facilitate collaboration across study sites in primate cognition research.
Information and practical guidance on the natural history and behaviour of macaques, their care and management in captivity, and ways to assess their welfare.
The guidelines have been instrumental in improving the housing and care of non-human primates at UK universities and other publicly funded laboratories internationally through, for example, requiring increased space for the animals, social housing and daily foraging opportunities – all of which are critical for NHP welfare.
