Produced under the auspices of the National Research Council, this report presents guidelines for the proper nutritional care of primates in research colonies or zoos. This revised edition of a volume originally published in 1978 places more emphasis on descriptions of natural dietary habits, gastrointestinal anatomy and physiology, and the special needs of species that have been traditionally difficult to maintain in captivity.
