Potential sources[edit]

The original version of this article was written in a style not consistent with Wikipedia style and sourcing standards, and contained no footnotes, but it does make reference to "an article written in 2002 by Jeanette Klopchin about the environmental impacts of the free-ranging colony". I have been unable to find such an article dated 2002, but I did find two articles by Klopchin (and others) on the subject, which may be useful in the further development and improvement of this article:

Klopchin, Sandifer, and Stewart, "Environmental Impacts Of a Free-Ranging Rhesus Monkey Colony (Macca Mulatta) on Morgan Island, South Carolina", stated to be a paper presented at the 14th Biennial Coastal Zone Conference, New Orleans, Louisiana, July 17 to 21, 2005. (Available on-line, but possibly not a reliable source, although the authors might be deemed experts on the subject.)
Klopchin, Stewart,Webster and Sandifer, "Assessment of environmental impacts of a colony of free-ranging rhesus monkeys (Macca mulatta) on Morgan Island, South Carolina", Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Volume 137, Numbers 1-3 (2008), 301-313, DOI: 10.1007/s10661-007-9766-3. Abstract here. (Appears to be a reliable source, but paywalled.)

I've added a few other sources as footnotes and other sources appear to be available per GBooks, GNews, and GScholar searches.--Arxiloxos (talk) 22:57, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No buildings on the north side of the island, they're on the east side.[edit]

As a big Google Earth fan I looked at the island and noticed there are no buildings on the north side, they are actually only on the east side apart from a couple of really small but tall structures inland. I then looked at the referenced PDF at https://web.archive.org/web/20140312224353/http://www.csc.noaa.gov/cz/CZ05_Proceedings/pdf%20files/posters/Klopchin.pdf which does not mention buildings or feeding. It is literally a study of monkey poo pollution in local creeks.

I suggest that "This colony is fed by automated systems of which are activated inside a building along the north coast of the island." be removed until an accurate reference be found that can verify that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.17.136.37 (talk) 05:18, 5 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
