Description

When: October 6, 2022

Where: Apenheul Apeldoorn, the Netherlands


I absolutely love their bright coloring


Species: Golden Lion Tamarin (Gouden leeuwaapje)

Latin name: Leontopithecus Rosalia

Originates from the Atlantic coastal forests of Brazil.

Current status: Endangered

Did you know:

…They are also known as the Golden Marmoset.

…They have a bright, golden-reddish pelage all over their bodies, with longer hair around the face and ears, giving it the impression of a mane.

…Golden Lion Tamarins walk along small branches using all four feet, making them appear more like Squirrels with the way they leap and bound between the trees.
