The body temperature of six adult monkeys was dropped by surface cooling to levels between 4° and 9°C. Cardiac standstill occurred when the body temperature reached 14°11°C and lasted for periods from 42 minutes up to 2 hours and 3 minutes. All of these six monkeys survived the procedure and five lived for many months afterwards. The surviving monkeys appeared neurologically normal and their behavior, intelligence and habits were unchanged.
