At the  Primate Laboratory - Los Tuxtlas  we do research with non human primates, population,ecology, behavior, general health of primate populations.

"Endemic" species are species occur within a particular geographical area and nowhere else. Thus species endemic to Taiwan are unique to this island and found nowhere else in the world. They are an inseparable part of Taiwan's natural ecosystem, and of our lives. If appropriately conserved, they can be used by mankind forever, but if they are allowed to become extinct in Taiwan, they will be lost from the world for all time. The  Endemic Species Research Institute  looks out for these species so that they will survive.
