A large, three-part playground for captive chimpanzees was constructed and evaluated in terms of area use and behavior changes. Comparative behavioral samples were obtained on 38 subjects in the existing indoor-outdoor run and in the enclosure. The chimpanzees used the inside run, connective chute, concrete slab, and grass areas most. Activity and environmental manipulation increased in the enclosure while abnormal and self-directed behaviors decreased.
为圈养黑猩猩建造了一个大型的、由三部分组成的游乐场,并从区域使用和行为变化方面进行了评估。在现有的室内外跑道和围栏中,对38只黑猩猩进行了比较行为样本采集。黑猩猩使用室内跑道、连接斜道、混凝土板和草地的频率最高。在围栏内,活动和环境操纵行为增加,而异常行为和自我导向行为减少。
