Publisher's Synopsis
For millennia, humans have been attracted by monkeys, particularly small, clever species such as the capuchin. Their expressive expressions, agile hands, and exceptional intelligence make them some of the most popular exotic pets. Many people are drawn to capuchins because of their playful demeanor and strong emotional links with their owners, and they are frequently compared to young children for their curiosity and problem-solving ability. However, despite their unmistakable allure, maintaining a capuchin monkey as a pet is a difficult and demanding task.
In this book, we will look at the attractiveness of capuchin monkeys as pets, including their distinctive qualities, why people choose to keep them, and the expectations versus realities of keeping one. While these creatures appear to be great companions, there are some aspects to consider before bringing a capuchin into the home.
