Common Squirrel Monkey

Squirrel monkeys are small and highly intelligent; traits that have led them to be captured and kept as pets in both their native regions and around the world. Although nowadays the majority of pet squirrel monkeys are captive bred, their capture for the exotic pet trade in the past has had a damaging effect on wild populations. Sadly their numbers continue to decline, as their habitats are lost to commercial logging and agricultural use. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152730997135603&set=a.10152575329380603.958289.10150120463815603&type=1 https://twitter.com/projectnoah/status/323158310805188609
