Abstract
Summary A system of management is described in which all 3 offspring from triplet births of Callithrix jacchus can be successfully reared to weaning. Hand-rearing techniques are applied to the offspring in turn without depriving them of the maternal and family influences necessary for normal behavioural development.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
