The smallest monkey 🐵 in the world | pygmy marmosets
The smallest monkey in the world is the pygmy marmoset (Callithrix pygmaea), also known as the dwarf monkey or pocket monkey. They are native to the rainforests of South America, specifically found in the Amazon Basin.
Pygmy marmosets are incredibly small primates, measuring only about 5 to 6 inches (12.7 to 15.2 cm) in length, excluding their tails. They weigh around 3 to 5 ounces (85 to 140 grams). These tiny monkeys have a distinct appearance with their long tails, sharp claws, and tufts of hair around their ears.
They are highly social animals and live in small family groups consisting of a monogamous pair and their offspring. Pygmy marmosets are primarily arboreal, spending most of their time in trees. They have specialized adaptations for this lifestyle, such as sharp claws for gripping branches and a long tail that helps with balance. Their diet consists mainly of tree sap, gum, fruits, insects, and nectar.
Due to their small size and elusive nature, pygmy marmosets can be challenging to spot in the wild. They are also sometimes kept as pets, although this practice is heavily regulated and often discouraged due to the complex care requirements and conservation concerns.
