Abstract | Background: Wild capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) usually are found in conserved forests near the zoo and the urban areas of Brasília city, Brazil. In this study, some capuchin monkeys were captured using traps, followed by safe biological procedures for their overall health analysis, based on specific haematological and biochemical tests of blood samples. Methods: Blood was collected from a total of 17 monkeys for the determination of parameters, namely packed cell volume (PCV), leucocytes, erythrocytes, platelets and triglycerides. Statistical analyses for average values, median, standard deviation and range were performed. Results: These parameters were set based on the minimum and maximum values obtained from the blood tests. Data are presented in tabulated form. Conclusions: Capture procedures were based on animal safety analysis for free-living animals and would help future studies on wild animals. The collected samples used in this study suggested the animals to be apparently healthy in their habitat. |
