Primate Breeding Operations

WaNPRC operates breeding colonies in the United States. The on-campus breeding program maintained within the Seattle facilities is a breeding colony of M. nemestrina used for production of time-mated pregnancies or newborn infants specifically for research programs needing these specific animals. WaNPRC also maintains domestic breeding programs at facilities in Louisiana and Texas for these species: M. nemestrina and M. mulatta.
