A breeding colony of 22 female and 4 male rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) was established in a controlled-environment building with an outdoor run. The animals were quarantined for 2 years prior to their release into the unit. The housing, release and management of the colony are described. During the first year 19 young were born of which 17 have survived to 6 months of age. The cost of production and maintenance of the colony when compared with the cost of importing rhesus monkeys would appear to be acceptable.
在一个带有户外活动场地的受控环境建筑中建立了一个繁殖群体，其中有22只雌性恒河猴和4只雄性恒河猴（猕猴）。这些动物在放入该区域之前被隔离了两年。描述了该群体的饲养、放归和管理情况。在第一年中有19只幼猴出生，其中17只存活到了6个月大。与进口恒河猴的成本相比，该群体的生产和维持成本似乎是可以接受的。
