Comparative foraging study of selected species family Cebidea - "nails monkeys" in the ZOO Plzeň.
 BROŽOVÁ, Alena
The main objective of this study was investigation of accurate diet portions and observing food preferences of callitrichids. The work was executed in the Pilsen ZOO in 40 days between March 2010 and September 2010. The studied species were: Leontopithecus chrysomelas, Saguinus imperator, Saguinus oedipus, Callithrix jacchus, Saguinus midas and Saguinus fuscicollis. The aim was to find out the actual nutrition values of the diet and to determine preferences for given fruits. The results were compared with recommended values. The amount of fat, proteins, fiber, calcium and phosphorus in the diet of callitrichids were compared with the recommended quantities of diet. Little diferences from recommended nutrition values were found in some cases without major impact on the animal health. The second part of the research was focused on the food preferences for five types of fruit. The results show that callitrichids prefer grapes and banana.
