He has worked extensively with populations of macaques in Bali and Gibraltar, where the monkeys are a large tourist attraction, focusing on the spread of diseases between humans and macaques.
The monkeys are used scientific research, including gene therapy, cancer, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, stem cells and antibody-based treatments.
Dutton found that the monkeys could be infected by bites from soft ticks (Ornithodoros moubata) carrying Borrelia duttoni, a spirochaete.
La Vallée des Singes ("The Valley of the Monkeys") is a primate park in Romagne, France.
The monkeys had been used as research subjects by Edward Taub, a psychologist, who had cut afferent ganglia that supplied sensation to the brain from their arms, then used arm slings to restrain either the good or deafferented arm to train them to use the limbs they could not feel.
Norman Doidge writes that Taub wondered whether the reason the monkeys abandoned use of the deafferented limbs was simply that they were still able to use their good ones.
In the past in Yakushima, when food supplies for Macaques became short, the monkeys would encroach on human habitation and damage crops; 400-500 Yakushima Macaques were caught and exterminated every year due to the damage done to the Ponkan and Tankan orange crops for which Yakushima is especially noted.
