title: [Veterinary aspects of raising chimpanzees].
abstract: The problems involved in chimpanzee husbandry are mainly baised on their behaviour, intelligence and psychical sensitivity. The most suitable species-specific conditions of keeping, feeding and veterinary welfare are fundamental demands for physical and mental health as well as for successful reproduction of chimpanzees living in captivity. In spite of different possibilities and motives of chimpanzee husbandry in each particular case, the general statements given in this article may be useful concerning these requirements.
