The zoo here in Kansas City has several Golden Lion Tamarins. When I went this past summer, there was a pretty young one, perhaps 8 weeks old. That young monkey would ride around on the backs of some of the other tamarins - not necessarily it's mother.
I wondered if this had to do with socialization, getting used to moving around branches at a fairly high speed, both, or some other function.
I think my little dog would like to be as close to me as this little monkey is to his mom all of the time. Nickodemis, my Maltese, wants to sit on me or be against me 24/7!
How cute these monkeys are, but beware, they can be very nasty, find the best way to see these animals is by your jigsaws. Thank you team for yet another great puzzle.
