White-headed Capuchin in Panama

Native to the forests of Central America and the extreme north-western portion of South America, White-headed Capuchins are my favorite type of monkey. They are very intelligent, very friendly and also really cute. My favorite was a smaller male named Billy.

@Faith69dotcom i'm glad you agree :)

@mindmonkey00 gotcha :) Sorry. Yes I agree even though they are super fun to play with and be around, it is wrong to take a wild animal and try to make it a family pet, unless there are circumstances that forced it to be in the hands of a human for rehabilitation, saving, etc...

@Faith69dotcom dont worry, i wasnt flaming you i was flaming thesebananatrees and i think its great that you are rehabilitating them. anyway, i was saying that its wrong to buy traded monkeys that were caught from the wild.

@mindmonkey00 before assuming the worst, maybe instead ask a question about these first. These monkeys were rescued from abusers as you mentioned and the baby was found injured after kids had thrown rocks at it and it fell out of a tree. They are in an animal rescue sanctuary and have a huge enclosure that mimics their natural environment as best as possible.

@thesebananatrees please dont be so impulsive to support the illegal pet trades that are making these and many other monkey spiecies endangered. if you really love them you would educate people about this horrible trade business. besides, the monkey will never really love you and will eventually flip out and injure you if you kept it as a pet
