A dedicated breeding colony of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) was established in 1986 to participate with other chimpanzee holding institutions in production of animals for use in research and to insure the future availability of animals by the establishment of a self-sustaining chimpanzee colony. This program will be continued with emphasis on providing in the colony. Production goals will be aimed at colony maintenance levels, unless there is a clear need for an increase in production due to increased national demand. This is because of the increase production if the need arises and space problems are solved. Breeding will be done in large social groups, medium sized harem groups and individual pair-matings. Artificial breeding techniques will be used to promote genetic diversity. Infants will stay in natal groups through natural weaning periods. Any nursery-reared infants will be fostered at around 1 year of age onto mothers in normal social groups. Research will be conducted in areas relevant to improvement of infant survival by controlling periparturient morality; in infant development and investigation of motivational factors in mating behavior.

一个专门的黑猩猩繁殖地， 成立于1986年，与其他黑猩猩一起举行 研究用动物的生产机构，并确保 通过建立一个自我维持的 黑猩猩聚居地 该计划将继续重点放在 在殖民地提供。 生产目标将针对殖民地 维持水平，除非有明确的需要， 由于国内需求的增加。 这是因为 如果有需要和空间问题得到解决，可以增加产量。 繁殖将在大型社会群体，中等规模的后宫群体， 单独配对 人工繁殖技术将用于 促进遗传多样性。 婴儿将留在纳塔尔组， 自然断奶期。 任何托儿所抚养的婴儿将被寄养在 在正常社会群体中的母亲身上。 将在与改善婴儿健康有关的领域进行研究。 通过控制围产期道德来生存;在婴儿发育中， 交配行为的动机因素调查。
