We released a group of lion-tailed macaques on the island. They had this nice group in New York. Unfortunately, it was heavy on males, but there were females that were breeding. I kept the State of Georgia aware of what we were doing. They had no problem with doing anything because as far as they were concerned, they were on an island out in the Atlantic Ocean and they’re not gonna go anywhere. And that would be true, they weren’t about to leave. Deer swam across between the islands from time to time but there was no reason for these animals to do it. Had us a graduate student watching the macaques, the lion-tailed macaques, when we put them out there, keeping notes on what they did and what they ate and where they went to find food.
