San Antonio Zoo unveils new open-air Tamarin Habitat

The San Antonio Zoo opened a new open-air Tamarin Habitat, marking the final decommission of its last traditional primate cage.

The details: According to a news release, the new Tamarin Habitat, which is home to four female and one male cotton-top tamarins, is over 180% larger than the previous habitat. Located in the Neotropica realm of the Zoo, the new habitat provides a lush landscape and dynamic perching areas.

The cotton-top tamarin is one of the world’s smallest primates, and due primarily to habitat loss and deforestation, is one of the most endangered, with fewer than 6,000 estimated to remain in the wild, the news release states.
