“…Other studies have been concerned with the presence or absence of antibody to various primates, including the baboon, on animals maintained in captivity (Kalter, 1973). A few specific disease outbreaks among captive baboons have also been described (Kalter, ]973; Eugster, Kalter, Kim & Pinkerton, ]969; Vice, Pinkerton, Fear & Kalter, 1968). Little, if any, information is available, however, regarding pathological conditions one might expect among a colony of baboons living for varying periods of time in captivity.…”

In contrast to the findings in newly caught babboons in Africa, the leading cause of death in captivity in America was a pneumonia and enteritis complex. Bacterial species such as Proteus morgani, Proteus mirabilis, Clostridium sp., Pseudomonas paracolon, pathogenic Escherichia coli and cocci have been isolated in association with a pneumoenteric syndrome of 35 newborn baboons, including neonates. The majority of these animals died with pulmonary factors such as anoxia and pneumonia.

“…Anomalous development of the spleen occurs infrequently in pri mates and is usually an incidental finding during a surgical operation or a post-mortem examination [4,5,7,8]. Although the occurrence is rare, it is important to report the incidence of the ectopic spleen.…”

“…Most documented nonhuman primate cases have involved macaques, great apes and less frequently African cercopithecoids, cynomolgus monkey [3,10,20,30]. In baboons, several cases have been described in the literature [6,13,16,17,29,30]. These cases were connected with human contact.…”

“…TB has been described in nonhuman primates in captivity but it does not occur naturally in free‐living mammals [21]. Most documented nonhuman primate cases have involved macaques, great apes and less frequently African cercopithecoids, cynomolgus monkey [3, 10, 20, 30]. In baboons, several cases have been described in the literature [6, 13, 16, 17, 29, 30].…”
