A Newly-Devised Squeezing Cage for Monkeys

Abstract

The monkey is usually apt to resist against squeezing when we use an old-fashioned squeezingcage, having a back-panel movable toward the front side. This brief note deals with a newly-devised monkey cage, having a front panel which can be moved toward the back of the cage, being guided by 4 rails set inside the cage (Fig. 1) . The animal can easily be restrained between the back and the moved front panel of the cage. In addition, this new type cage has not any parts which are difficult to be washed and disinfected.
