  • Title: Management and breeding of Aotus trivirgatus.
    Author: Elliott MW, Sehgal PK, Chalifoux LV.
    Journal: Lab Anim Sci; 1976 Dec; 26(6 Pt 2):1037-40. PubMed ID: 828222.
    Abstract:
    Attempts to establish successful breeding colonies of Aotus trivirgatus at this and other laboratories have largely been unsuccessful, resulting in only occasional pregnancies and a rare live birth. After the recognition of seven different karyotypes of owl monkeys, animals were paired on this basis and resulted in a marked increase in conceptions. From 1971 to 1975 only 10 pregnancies occurred but during 1975, there were 19 pregnancies. In addition to proper karyotyping, a period of acclimation and conditioning was required. Mean body measurements and weights of infants were established.
