Non-human primates
Author: Dwight Norris

We operate an animal sanctuary in north central Alabama and we would like to provide large habitats...2 to 5 acres...for non-human primates, specifically baboons and chimpanzees. We are convinced that electric fence is the most cost effective way to go. Do you have any experience designing enclosures for primates?

Nearly all of the electric fences that we have provided have been hot wire systems install on/with a primary physical barrier of appropriate height for the applications. These offset electrified wires have done vary well at deterring the primates for climbing primary fence barriers. We do not do any of the design work that has been done in any of the zoo applications.

Thanks
Scott
