Ekwal Imam, H. S. A. Yahya · Zoos Print Journal · 2001
Several Rhesus Monkey bites reported from the ALigarh Muslim University Campus prompted the University Health department and the Provost of S.N.Hall to curb the monkey menace.The monkey trapping/shifting was undertaken during January-February 2000 and January 2001.Out of 27 Rhesus monkeys, 22 were trapped and shifted to the semi-natural forest area of Jawan, Aligarh District.This paper reports the attempt to shift the monkeys but does not substantiate the validity of the exercise for want of post transfer monitoring.
