This is a beautiful picture of a baby marmoset:
Distribution : South America, in the upper Amazon of Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Brazil. They live in trees (arboreal) and despite of their size they are very fast runners. Pygmy marmosets are known to mark (with scent glands) and defend their territory from 25 to 100 acres.
They live in social groups : family groups of 2-15 individuals. Only one breeding pair in a group.
Their lifespan : over 16 years Length : The pygmy marmoset is one of the smallest monkey on earth !!! Head + Body : 4.7-5.8 inches (12-15 cm) Tail : 6.6-9 inches (17-23 cm)
They weigh : 3.5-4.5 ounces (100-120g). At birth the young weigh appr 0.5 ounces (15g).
Their hands and feet : Except for the big toes, a marmoset has claws not nails unlike most monkeys.
