Husbandry, breeding and maintenance of a viable population of cotton top tamarins (Sanguinus oedipus oedipus)
1987
Scullion, F.T.
Members of the family Callithricidae are commonly used as laboratory primates and some species have been vital in certain areas of medical research. Constant erosion of the South American tropical rain forests, caused by logging for commercial and agricultural uses, has placed a number of species in danger of extinction in their natural habitat. Laboratory bred animals are helping to ease the pressure on natural populations whilst increasing the knowledge about particular species of tamarin as kept in the University of Bristol colony.
