COTTON-TOP TAMARIN
Cotton-top tamarins live in northwest Columbia. They can adapt to living in rainforests, as well as semi-deciduous dry forests. In the wild, their diet consists of insects, fruits, flowers, nectar, frogs, snails, and lizards. An extended cotton-top tamarin family might range over 100 acres. Like all tamarins and marmosets, their young are raised cooperatively, with all group members participating. Much of their time is spent in social grooming. Cotton-top tamarins' facial expressions, postures, hair reaction and high-pitched vocalizations help them communicate.
