[musclestream]

they have a spirit how would you be in a jail lets change your life course.

[canucktunes]

@musclestream Huh ?

[kidblood1]

Hey Now !!

[canucktunes]

@kidblood1 - Hi there. :)

[shelllewis]

marmosets are soooooo cute id love to have one as a pet

[butterflybabexoxo1]

wow their cute and thats the type of monkey Moe (from my movie) is and my movie is called pickles party..... its retarded.

[bugcot]

haha it looks like gizmo off the movie gremlins!!

[Zonambula]

There's a documentary called Gremlins:Faces in the Forest about them!

[canucktunes]

It's a shame it wasn't released on DVD yet. I would have liked renting it.

This documentary was part of PBS' "Nature" series in the late 90's but isn't available on DVD. :(

[transewookie]

I wish there would be a marmoset infestation where I live. It would be the cutest infestation ever. Way better than cockroaches.

[canucktunes]

:) These little guys would probably eat all of the cockroaches.

[sovaever]

are they in pet stores?????

[canucktunes]

I filmed them at the Zoo in Moncton.

[sovaever]

oh ok thx

[allhopeisgone32666]

no lol, like only 12 breeders in the us

[canucktunes]

I think it may be illegal to sell them here in Canada. I've never seen them at any pet store here.

[kikikiki7]

For example, in my country, it is possible to buy them in special pet stores

[uchihaaddiction]

Primates DO NOT make good pets at all. Even the very tiny marmoset needs a lot of space, special diet, and attention. Leave them in the wild where they belong.

[canucktunes]

And let's not forget the warmth. I'd need to turn the thermostat up quite high to keep one of those little guys warm.

[kikikiki7]

Are they smart?

[canucktunes]

I don't know. But they are quite inquisitive.

[allhopeisgone32666]

theyre very smart

[kikikiki7]

Really?

I like them, they are cute, but I'm not sure that they are smart like dogs

[allhopeisgone32666]

they make dogs look retarded

[canucktunes]

I guess it depends on the breed of dog you're comparing them too.

For example, huskies and the retrievers are quite intelligent in comparison to Chow Chows, who can't even find treats hidden under a bowl, that you've hidden while they were watching.

[UsagiOhkami]

omg, his face looks almost exactly like a magwi's (gremlin)

[canucktunes]

I think the designers of Magwi were likely inspired by marmosets. There's too much of a similarity.

[weepingson]

omg so cute.

[lozzangel2]

You got a great video there. I love Marmosets ever since I saw some at a zoo. 2 were cuddleing and I was gutted I forgot my camcorder.

[canucktunes]

That must have been cute. There were two in the pen when I was filming but the other one was a bit shy.

[ZARROC2010]

omg, i don't think there's anything in the world more adorable than this!!!

[canucktunes]

And they're so tiny. I didn't expect them to be that small.

[805most]

ima buy one der only like 4Gs

[canucktunes]

:) Yipes. They're cute but 4 grand is a bit too much for me.

[weepingson]

4 grand would be worth it for me.

[canucktunes]

I'd probably need to get an extra room and set it up with the proper plants and humidity settings as well. Ottawa gets pretty cold...

[chadsexinton]

u know. those things eat people

[canucktunes]

I guess it was hungry when it was looking at me then :)

[TwilightPrincessSage]

hahahahahaha

[chadsexinton]

lol. y are ppl giving me the thumbs down. haha

[canucktunes]

yeah - the thumbs and and down thing is just weird.

[Espada22]

I didn't anything like that when I was looking up information about them.

[jeworthe28]

do not.unless the r starving.then they might.ill look it up.

[jeworthe28]

it sed they eat bugs and fruit.some types chew on trees 2 harvest the gum inside.some species r specialised feeders on the gum from the trees.thats wat it sed on wikipedia.

[canucktunes]

I should have stayed for feeding time. Cute little guys.

[MazzazzK]

I want one :)

[canucktunes]

:) Aren't they cute ? I'd probably need to spend hundred more on heating during winter to keep the little guy or gal comfortable though.

[LuvvyDuck]

Marmosets are luvvvvvv...  <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

[canucktunes]

:) I have another marmoset vid, of a different marmoset, in case you haven't spotted it.

[asianbee21]

i love this guy...lol. I'm doing a presentation on marmoset for my finals.

[canucktunes]

Hmm. I wonder if it's a male or female. Forgot to ask. There were two in the exhibit, the other being way too shy or nervous to film.

[shamuslauer1]

we shall call him George of marz!

[flightofideas72]

Excruciatingly cute! I LOVE marmoset's They are the best. I wish I had one as a pet. It's impossible to resist these guys. They're so humble. I also love Lemur's and Tarsier's. They are just the darnedest!!!!! Thanks for posting this irresistible video. It made my day!

[canucktunes]

:) There were actually two in the cage but I forgot to film the other. Oh well, next year perhaps.

[canucktunes]

well hi there

[MyPinkElephants]

Soooo cute!!

Reminds me of Gizmo! XD

[canucktunes]

Yeah, my brother mentioned that as soon as he saw it as well.

[Sportiboy]

That marmoset is precious I could eat it up, lol! I wonder what must have been going through its little mind when you filmed this.

[canucktunes]

It was a bit nervous, so I basically moved as little as possible - except the occasional movement of the fingers to get it to look at me.

[MysterEy1]

Very nice animals. Thanks. BTW are they carnivorous?

[canucktunes]

They eat insects, fruit and leaves.

[Perico1973]

Cute as in: very cute.

I like!

[canucktunes]

I didn't expect them to be so tiny. Actually, I didn't expect to see them at all - They're displayed with snakes and lizards.
