Stromoví damani rodu Dendrohyrax patří mezi nejméně známé savce. V tomto textu shrnujeme dosud známé znalosti o jejich ekologii a etologii. Jelikož je dnes na celém světě chovají pouze české zoologické zahrady, je část textu věnována i jejich chovu v lidské péči.

Tree hyraxes – genus Dendrohyrax – are among the least known mammals. In this review we summarize all known facts on their ecology and ethology. According to the Zoological Information Management System (ZIMS) the only two zoos worldwide currently holding these animals are found in the Czech Republic. Therefore, also the information on their husbandry is included.
