This study investigated fluctuations in hematological values of 50 wild‐caught vervet monkeys (African green monkeys, grivets, Chlorocebus aethiops ) during habituation to captivity. The monkeys were categorized into four groups according to age and sex viz adult males, adult females, juvenile males, and juvenile females. The erythrocyte values were significantly higher ( P P
