RAISING A FINGER MONKEY AS A PET: The Finger Monkey Handbook: A Comprehensive Guide to Caring For Finger Monkey

By CHAD BRUNO

There is no one monkey species that goes by the label " " in the scientific or popular lexicons. One of the tiniest primates, pygmy marmosets are sometimes referred to by this name. Small in stature and with a peculiar appearance, pygmy marmosets can only be found in South America. Because of their small stature and their ability to wrap their little fingers around trees and other things, these monkeys are frequently referred to as "finger monkeys."
- The body length of a pygmy marmoset is normally between 4 and 6 inches (10 and 15 centimeters), while its tail is slightly longer. The long, fluffy tail and white facial characteristics set them apart. These apes are experts in hopping and swinging from branch to branch in the tree canopy. They mostly feed on tree sap and insects.
- It's worth noting that while "finger monkey" is a common colloquial moniker for pygmy marmosets, it is not the species' official or scientific name. The scientific term for this monkey is the "pygmy marmoset" (Cebuella pygmaea), which should be used when talking about or studying them.
