  • Title: A flexible restraint chair for the cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis).
    Author: Nakamura RK, Coates R, Crawford H, Friedman D.
    Journal: J Med Primatol; 1982; 11(3):178-85. PubMed ID: 7183766.
    Abstract:
    We have found that commercial restraint chairs suitable for the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) cause severe physical distress to many cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis). A new restraint chair has therefore been designed specifically for the cynomolgus. The key features of the chair are an angled neck piece, a large opening to provide free movement for the tail, a soft waist restraint, and a level surface for both the heels and ischial pads. This new chair is not only suitable for the cynomolgus monkey but may also be more comfortable for the rhesus monkey than standard commercial chairs.
