It's hard not to imagine how magnificent it must be to have a monkey as a pet, every day we can see very happy people on social media next to these animals but the reality is that the creation of these creatures is not at all simple and requires a lot of dedication and time in this video you will see 5 breeds of monkeys that can be pets
capuchin monkey
these apes are much smaller than chimpanzees and that makes them easier to raise and less dangerous at 60 centimeters tall and weighing less than 4.5 kg, capuchins are not big enough to hurt you like a chimpanzee could life expectancy of these little monkeys is 25 years old and their diet is based on leaves, fruits and small animals such as insects and birds.
squirrel monkey
squirrel monkeys normally reach between 25 and 35 centimeters in length without the tail these cute monkeys weigh on average between 453 grams and 1.3 kg, they are incredibly acrobatic and active animals and need a lot of space for their daily lives
squirrel monkeys love to swing from tree branches and hang from their tails so you will need to have a big space with lots of trees to
make your friend happy, they are known to be picky, so you may have a little trouble feeding them.
marmoset
monkeys in general are not silent animals but marmosets can be the ones that make the most noise of all if by chance these animals feel abandoned they will scream a lot until you pay attention the marmoset has a short life expectancy compared to other monkeys arriving to 20 years, there are several types of marmosets but on average they are only 20 centimeters long
chimpanzee
these primates can reach up to 1.5 meters in height and weigh 150 kg, when they reach 5 years of age they are already stronger than an adult man in captivity chimpanzees can have a high life expectancy reaching up to 60 years so you will probably have them for the rest of their lives the big problem with having these animals at home is that they are very strong and in some situations they can be dangerous especially with children
so if you are thinking of having a chimpanzee at home, do your research beforehand and always use the legal means
Spider monkey
these animals are one of the few monkeys people can name, they are extremely messy while other monkeys can wear diapers
spider monkeys pull and throw away, in addition they are very social and need a lot of interaction even more than other monkey races and if by chance
feel abandoned can become aggressive
