Artificial juvenile breeding method for long-tail monkeys

Abstract

The invention discloses an artificial juvenile breeding method for long-tail monkeys. The artificial juvenile breeding method comprises the following steps of (1) feeding the long-tail monkeys: feeding the juveniles of the long-tail monkeys at the age of 6-7 months every day with artificial milk accounting for 10%-20% of the weight of the juveniles, weaning the juveniles of the long-tail monkeys at the age of 7 months or above, and completely feeding the juveniles with feed; and (2) setting a juvenile breeding environment of the long-tail monkeys, specifically, nursing the young long-tail monkeys within 1.5 months old through an infant breeding box, putting the young long-tail monkeys within 1.5-12 months old into an indoor museum to be nursed and into an outdoor museum to move according to weather conditions, and putting the young long-tail monkeys above 12 months old into the outdoor museum to be nursed and enabling the young long-tail monkeys to freely enter and exit from the indoor museum and the outdoor museum through a channel. According to the artificial juvenile breeding method, the body weight, disease resistance and digestive ability of the juveniles are remarkably enhanced according to the body characteristics and nutritional requirements of the juveniles which are newly born, and normal and healthy growth of the juveniles is guaranteed.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of animal breeding methods, and in particular relates to an artificial breeding method for vervet monkeys. Background technique: [0002] The vervet monkey, also known as the vervet monkey, the red-fronted vervet monkey, and the white-bearded vervet monkey, is a type of Old World monkey discovered by French explorer Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza. There is a tuft of white hair on the chin, which looks like an old pedant, so it is also affectionately called "Doctor Monkey". Mainly distributed in the wetlands of central Africa. [0003] In recent years, in order to strengthen the protection of Vervet monkeys, not only a number of nature reserves have been established in their original habitats, but also investment in ex situ protection has been increased. At present, the research on vervet monkeys mainly focuses on social structure and behavior, and mostly takes wild monkey groups as the research objects. Howe...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, there are few relevant studies on vervet monkeys in cages. For the breeding work of vervet monkeys, there is currently no relatively complete and systematic technical means to elaborate in detail in China. A complete set of breeding techniques is of great significance for the conservation of Vervet monkeys and the future recovery of wild populations
