Primate behavior, ecology, and conservation films

Through the work of Professor Thomas Struhsaker (Evolutionary Anthropology) and Craig Breaden (Duke Libraries), five old films about primate behavior, ecology, and conservation have been converted to a digital format. The films, which range in release date from the 1960s to the early 2000s, can be accessed free of charge at Dr. Struhsaker's archive at https://archive.org/search.php?query=thomas%20struhsaker.  A brief synopsis of each film can be found below:
