Cute Marmoset

Cute Marmoset or simply marmoset is a small primate belonging to the Callitrichidae family, predominantly found in the tropical forests of South and Central America. Due to their small size and active behavior, marmosets are often considered some of the most charming monkeys.

Marmosets are known for their miniature sizes: their body length rarely exceeds 8 inches, and they can weigh less than 1.1 pound. They have long tails, which, although not used for climbing, help maintain balance. A distinctive feature of marmosets is their ability to move vertically and jump between trees.

One remarkable aspect of marmoset life is their social behavior. They live in small groups of 4 to 15 individuals and practice cooperative care for offspring, which is quite rare among primates. This includes collective feeding and caring for the young by the entire group. A notable trait of male marmosets is their fidelity. After the birth of offspring, they do not look at other ovulating females.

Marmosets primarily feed on tree sap, insects, and fruits. They have unique teeth that allow them to make holes in trees to access the sap.
