[...] 2. Infant pygmy marmosets are incredibly cute, their photographs are all over the WWW. I’d include one of the cuter ones in this article, but I’m unsure of it’s copyright status (I’ve tracked it down to the Everland Zoo in Korea, via the Zooborns blog, but the trail runs cold at that point). Other particularly cute photos include two infant marmosets for sale and in Jeffrey Gordon’s articleCuter Sapsuckers. [...]

Yup, this is my spirit animal, tongue-wise. Gawd, great shots Jeff. What a coup, what an epiphanic (been wanting to use that word!) experience.

The apparent tiger stripe on the individual photographed in the shade is striking. I think you’ve just added another target species to wish list. A hardy handshake and thank you to you.

They are the cutest. They are easier to see in Ecuador than in Manu, Peru. I have seen them quite a few times in the Cuyabeno area in Ecuador, but only a few times in Manu. They seem to prefer the swampy areas next to the cochas. But once one knows their favorite trees and recognise their high-pitched squeeks, they are easier to find.
I think many lodges in Ecuador have them well staked out.

Sweet. Thanks for the indepth intro to an amazing creature. And aren’t trees amazing?! They stand for ages and endure all kinds of abuse.

I have always wondered why anyone would want to take wildlife out of its natural habitat and lifestyle. It is so much more fun to watch natural behavior and marvel at how it all fits together in nature’s balance. Awesome photos! Long live trees and ‘mini’ marmosets.
