The Vervet Monkey is very playful. They are fun to watch jumping from tree to tree, and eating everything in sight. Look closely at these photos as there is a little baby here and there! Another name for the Vervet Monkey is the Green Monkey.

REGION-South America Squirrel monkeys may be found in groups of up to 300 individuals, depending on the habitat
The Squirrel Monkey is a small species of New World Monkey that is natively found in the forests and tropical jungles of Central and South America. Measuring as little as 25cm from the top of the head to the base of their tail, these tiny primates are more than double that size when including their long tail. Unlike a number of other small monkey species, the tail of the Squirrel Monkey is not prehensile which means that it cannot be used to grip onto branches. Instead, their long tail is used to help the Squirrel Monkey to balance when climbing about on the high branches.
