This is an Endangered species and one of seven species of monkeys on Bioko Island. The animal in the photograph, Moka Boi, is housed at the Drill Rehabilitation & Breeding Center, Nigeria. Moka Boi’s estimated age was 18 years when this photograph was taken in 2007. In captivity, male drills typically die of ‘old age’ at 16 to 19 years. Moka Boi was still alive as of October 2009. He was vasectomized in adolescence to enable him to enjoy a full life as part of a social group of mainland drills M. l. leucophaeus (E. L. Gadsby pers. comm.). Photograph by Jill Marty. See page 99.

We’d like to particularly welcome our newest WAPCA member Africa Alive. WAPCA Ghana Board also grew with five new Board members joining – Dr Selorm Tettey, Edward Wiafe, Kwame Tutu, Micheal Abedi-Lartey and Noah Gbexede. The Board also elected David Tettey as our new Chairman. David has been Acting Chairman since the sad passing of our late Chairman – we look forward to him guiding us over the coming years. 2016 saw many visitors – David Morgan from Colchester Zoo, Heather MacIntosh, Hannah Joy and Miranda Crosby from ZSL London Zoo, Tobias Kremer from Heidelberg Zoo, Sabrina Linn from Frankfurt Zoo and Nicky Plaskitt from Paradise Park – I wish to thank them for spending time with our team here and sharing their expertise and knowledge, as well as the useful gifts which they donated including enrichment items donated from Zoo Wizards.

    LABORATORY PRIMATE NEWSLETTER Vol. 45, No. 3 July 2006 JUDITH E. SCHRIER, EDITOR JAMES S. HARPER, GORDON J. HANKINSON AND LARRY HULSEBOS, ASSOCIATE EDITORS MORRIS L. POVAR, CONSULTING EDITOR ELVA MATHIESEN, ASSISTANT EDITOR ALLAN M. SCHRIER, FOUNDING EDITOR, 1962-1987 Published Quarterly by the Schrier Research Laboratory Psychology Department, Brown University Providence, Rhode Island ISSN 0023-6861 POLICY STATEMENT The Laboratory Primate Newsletter provides a central source of information about nonhuman primates and re- lated matters to scientists who use these animals in their research and those whose work supports such research. The Newsletter (1) provides information on care and breeding of nonhuman primates for laboratory research, (2) dis- seminates general information and news about the world of primate research (such as announcements of meetings, research projects, sources of information, nomenclature changes), (3) helps meet the special research needs of indi- vidual investigators by publishing requests for research material or for information related to specific research prob- lems, and (4) serves the cause of conservation of nonhuman primates by publishing information on that topic. As a rule, research articles or summaries accepted for the Newsletter have some practical implications or provide general information likely to be of interest to investigators in a variety of areas of primate research. However, special con- sideration will be given to articles containing data on primates not conveniently publishable elsewhere. General descriptions of current research projects on primates will also be welcome. The Newsletter appears quarterly and is intended primarily for persons doing research with nonhuman primates. Back issues may be purchased for $5.00 each.

    Old World Monkeys in Mixed Species Exhibits (GaiaPark Kerkrade, 2010) Elwin Kraaij & Patricia ter Maat Old World Monkeys in Mixed Species Exhibits Factors influencing the success of old world monkeys in mixed species exhibits Authors: Elwin Kraaij & Patricia ter Maat Supervisors Van Hall Larenstein: T. Griede & M. Dobbelaar Client: T. ter Meulen, Apenheul Thesis number: 594000 Van Hall Larenstein Leeuwarden, August 2011 Preface This report was written in the scope of our final thesis as part of the study Animal Management. The research has its origin in a request from Tjerk ter Meulen (vice chair of the Old World Monkey TAG and studbook keeper of Allen’s swamp monkeys and black mangabeys at Apenheul Primate Park, the Netherlands). As studbook keeper of the black mangabey and based on his experiences from his previous position at Gaiapark Kerkrade, the Netherlands, where black mangabeys are successfully combined with gorillas, he requested our help in researching what factors contribute to the success of old world monkeys in mixed species exhibits. We could not have done this research without the knowledge and experience of the contributors and we would therefore like to thank them for their help. First of all Tjerk ter Meulen, the initiator of the research for providing information on the subject and giving feedback on our work. Secondly Tine Griede and Marcella Dobbelaar, being our two supervisors from the study Animal Management, for giving feedback and guidance throughout the project. Finally we would like to thank all zoos that filled in our questionnaire and provided us with the information required to perform this research.
