Veterinarians working with nonhuman primates should remember that the animals, especially apes, are very intelligent, and have great physical strength. Additionally, people having direct contact with nonhuman primates should protect themselves against infectious diseases caused by viruses (marburg, ebola, monkey pox, poliomyelitis, rabies, hepatitis typ A) and bacteria (leprosy, tuberculosis, salmonellosis, shigellosis, listeriosis, leptospirosis). Successful veterinary procedures are possible with appropriate physical or chemical restraint of an animal. Drug application can be administered orally or by injections, if necessary using a capture gun (injection rifle or pistol).
