Common Marmoset At The Toronto Zoo
Friday, November 21st, 2008
I could have watched the common marmosets play at the Toronto Zoo all day. They were so adorable and so lively.
Common Marmosets are fround in the Tropical and sub-tropical rain forests of South America and Panama, mostly in the Amazon regions (Brazil and north Bolivia). They eat vegetation, fruit, insects, spiders, small birds, small animals and bird’s eggs. They travel in groups of 3 to 12. They can live up to 10 years in the wild and 16 years in captivity.
