   Abstract:
   One of the most invasive things that !eld primatologists do is to dart or trap wild individuals. Given its traumatic impact, it is vital that each researcher evaluate the pros and cons of capture. Does the research question(s) require capture or is there another less stressful option? What are the bene!ts and costs for the animals being captured and for the researcher? These categories have very different goals, but often can be combined for the bene!t of the targeted species.
