猕猴体况评价系统的建立和探讨

Establishment and discussion of a physical evaluation system in the rhesus macaque

目的为了能及时了解人工笼养猕猴的健康状况,快速发现饲养管理中存在的问题,并给人工圈养猕猴单位提供合理的饲养管理方案,初步建立猕猴健康状况评价体系。方法结合十多年的猕猴饲养管理经验,以中国科学院昆明动物研究所饲养的500多只猕猴为研究对象,以精神状态、营养状况、采食状况、肢体健康状况、短期体重增减情况、年龄以及动物肥胖度等为主要评价指标进行评分,并按综合得分将动物目前体况分为"Fine"、"Good"、"Normal"、"Bad"四个等级。结果建立了简单、可操作性强的人工笼养猕猴的体况评价体系;能有效的减少人为的、片面的,主观的判断,用量化的方式进行评价。结论本研究建立的猕猴健康状况评价体系,为猕猴的饲养管理、疾病防治、提供科学依据。

Objective To establish a hedth evaluation system and to evaluate the health status of captive rhesus macaques.Methods Combined with more than10years of breeding management experience with rhesus macaques,500rhesus macaques were evaluated in this study.The evaluation involved grading rhesus macaques by observing their mental status,feeding status,physical health status,short-term weight gain,age,and obesity.Then,a comprehensive score was obtained according to a certain weight ratio.Results Based on the comprehensive score,the current condition of the animals was divided into four levels:fine,good,normal,and bad.Conclusions This study provides the scientific basis for breeding management and disease prevention of rhesus macaques.
