Adopt-a-Monkey Program: Chaos
Born in 2002, Chaos had a difficult childhood. Her mother was always running away from bad “boyfriends” and so she rarely had other monkeys her age to play with. There were several tragic losses in her family, as her matriline separated from its social group twice. Finally, after losing all her adult female relatives, she became the first female capuchin monkey to ever migrate to a new group.
Please go to her facebook page here to learn more background about her life and send her a friend request.
If you enjoy receiving live status updates, photos, and videos about the monkeys of Lomas Barbudal, please consider donating to this organization to keep this project running. This is a rare opportunity to gain insight into the intimate life of a white faced capuchin monkey through Susan Perry’s life work.
Disclaimer:
These monkeys are completely wild. The researchers and assistants documenting these monkeys do not attempt to interfere with their natural behaviors and the behaviors of the other animals they encounter. Please note that life in nature is not always pleasant. If you are subscribing on behalf of your children, we recommend the “Kid Approved” content subscription in the drop down menu. Both versions of the Facebook subscriptions will receive the same amount of posts and insight into these characters’ lives, but some details and pictures will be censored that may too graphic for children.
** It can take up to 7 days before your Facebook Friend Request is accepted. Contact us at CapuchinFoundation@gmail.com if there are any problems.
