where can i find them what websites so i can by one i’m starting my pet store and i won’t sell him or her but i think it would be a good idea to get a girl and boy so they can make a famlie and i can show the kids the babys and there famlies and teach them about the rain forest and all that i will treat them like people never caged up if u have any information please talk thank you

I currently own a capuchin male monkey. First off I will tell you that though your intentions mean well you will need to do alot of research. The sites listed below will talk about primate needs and charactertistics. You can never learn enough about these wonderful animals.

Also on you idea of wanting a girl and a boy. It is nearly impossible to raise 2 baby monkeys at the same time. The reason being is when you correct one the other one will come to its recue and you will have many problems. If you want a baby then get one raise it for approximately 2 yrs before getting another one. This is just monkey nature. In the wild when one monkey of the troop gets into trouble all the monkeys jump in to punish that monkey. It is not a good thing when a human is involved.

If you want to write to me I will give you my breeder’s email address. She is very reputable and I think she currently has a male right now that is ready to go.

You will see my monkey in my picture riding my dog.

    I’m not sure where you can find them to buy. Personally I do not think that is a good idea. It can be dangerous to work with them. Especially if you get a male and female and they start a family group the male well get territorial and aggressive. As for not having them in cages it would be a really bad idea to just let them have free fun of your store. Someone would get hurt, most likely a little kid that will try to catch it. I think its great to want to teach people about the rain forest but I would pick a different animal or a different way to do it.
