ABSTRACT:
A device for the long-term securing or "housing" of large or aggressive monkeys on poles within an enclosure is disclosed wherein a tether with rotatable joints is connected at one end to a collar around a monkey's neck and at the other end to a ring loosely fitted around a vertical climbing pole attached to horizontal support means, with perch means, and with a source of food and water being applied to each monkey, and with removable side walls, and with doors, permitting access to each individual monkey, and with all escape routes from the device closed by a ceiling and a floor, wherein each monkey may climp up and down its climbing pole freely with the ring sliding up and down the pole, and wherein the monkeys may make close physical contact with the other monkey similarly restrained within the device without their tethers becoming entangled, and wherein a plurality of such devices may be placed with their side walls alongside each other and connected by conventional means and their side walls removed, wherein the monkeys in the adjacent devices may now make close physical contact with each other, and wherein a caretaker attempting to catch a monkey may be protected from attack by adjacent monkeys by the reinsertion of the side walls, or partitions, and wherein a monkey that is being attacked by adjacent monkeys may have a safe area to which to retreat by the insertion of partitions between it and the adjacent aggressive monkeys.
