Home Our Animals Primates Monita - Squirrel Monkey

MonitaDOB: March 1995
FCZS: 3/8/96
Sex: Female
Weight: 1.3 lbs

Spanish for ‘little monkey’, Monita arrived at the Folsom Zoo in October 1998. Like her fellow squirrel monkeys, she had been abandoned by her mother and needed lots of special care. Monita is the most shy (or maybe most stubborn) of the FCZS troop. She is currently the only female, though plans are to add another female to the group.
