We don’t want to hurt or kill monkeys who have been troublesome for the past many years. They are not afraid of dogs or any sound. They come in group and enter our farm and eat fruits.
borrow some traps from your local zoo
Or buy Lion manure from your local Zoo…
It will fertilise you plants and the smell scares small creatures
I think they’re called a tasier or something like that, but often referred to as thumb monkeys. They’re smaller than a hamster, and very cute and loveable. I always see pictures of people with them, but wonder where to buy them.
You should go to a veternarian and ask them….or a local pet store that has exotic animals!!
I’ve seen pictures and people tell me about how small spider monkeys are.
Are they so small that they can wrap around your finger? Can you give me a picture?
They are pulling your leg. Spider monkeys are some of the larger monkeys. There is a picture at the link.
Do monkeys have tails and apes don’t? Are baboons monkeys?
It is certainly true that apes don’t have tails while monkeys do – there are other differences too.
Baboons are definitely monkeys, old-world monkeys in fact – the group most closely related to apes.
Take a look at the link below, it is the family tree of all the primates. You will see the apes (great apes and gibbons) in one group and the old-world monkeys in another + all the other primate families. It’s a good starting point for finding out more.

monkeys in a group enter garden trees in residential areas in and around urban areas and scare away children and old people. This kind of monkey menace is common place and reported on a daily basis. Is there any method to shoo away the monkey groups in a harmless and cruel less way?
no stop feeding the monkeys on the fence and they should go away just a suggestion
If i buy sea monkeys from the online store will they breed?
Most or nearly all online stores provide sea monkey eggs, and breeding them is very easy task if you follow the instruction booklet that comes along with the package.
I have 2 Red Eared Slider Turtles and I noticed today that there are small white specs that swim around erratically, much like sea monkeys, floating around all over their tank. Does anyone know what these could be? I’ve looked online for answers but there’s nothing about sea monkeys spontaneously appearing in turtle tanks.
There are quite a few micro-organisms that fit the description you’ve provided, not all of which are harmful to turtles. “Sea monkey” is the trade name for brine shrimp…these require salt water in which to live and are reddish in color.
To be on the safe side, break your tank and filter down and clean with table salt. Treating your turtles with a broad spectrum anti-parasite medication such as Sulfa Dip http://www.thatpetplace.com/pet/group/13126/product.web would be a good idea as well, just in case. Be sure also that the turtles can dry off thoroughly when basking, and that they have access to UVB light – both go a long way in improving their immune systems and in killing external parasites.

I live in Washington, I am not a zoologist, so what monkeys are legal for me?
check the standing procedure meant for pets, local authority has a policy and you have to follow the instructions if you want to have a pet.
monkey in any case is not allowed where you live. however if there is any exception, the animal pets control department will clear you.
My sons’ have Sea Monkeys, and they want to put something else in the tank. I’ve no problem setting up a different tank for pretty fish, but they want something to put in WITH the Sea Monkeys. Can I put snails in there without it hurting the Sea Monkeys?
The trouble with doing this, especially if its those little plastic things that sea monkeys come in, is that not only is that too small to support the bioload of both a snail and the sea monkeys, but sea monkeys are brine shrimp, they live in brine, salty brackish water. Most snails sold such as ramshorn and apple (also called mystery) snails will not tolerate salt at all. Snails that will tolerate salt are large (1" plus) and are real poop machines, really needing a proper filtered tank, not the stagnant salty water brine shrimp live in.
Some of my sea monkeys have long tails that just grew on, what is it?
I understand they are brine shrimp & brine shrimp have tails but I’m very curious if these ARE tails because they are awfully long?
thats not tails its poop, i have sea monkeys, it will fall off….lol
