8 Behaviour vs. visitor number Behaviour Relationship w/ increasing visitor number Odds ratio Significance level Allo-grooming 1.02 * Auto-grooming Resting 0.98 ** Social huddle 0.98 ** Foraging & Feeding 1.02 ** Interaction w/ enrichment 1.03 ** Locomotion 1.02 ** Play Social Interaction Begging Vigilance 1.07 *** Hiding Fighting Stereotypy Scratching Self-directed behaviour Open-mouth bared teeth threat Mason & Veasey, 2010; Burn, 2017

13 Signs vs. visitor noise
14 Were you being watched?
15 Conclusions Sulawesi crested macaques significantly affected by visitor numbers and noise levels Increase in vigilance with both visitor number and noise levels suggests these effects are a welfare concern Unclear implications for welfare of increases in active-type behaviours with visitor number and noise level Signs promising tool for quietening visitors but we need to improve efficacy Further research required to test signage with salient watching eyes when displayed at eye level
