3women.org: Monkey Pictures

Hello, here are more monkey pics. They are really cute, although some are a bit demonic!!! We are TIRED here, this is hard work. 12 hour days, we start at 6:00 am to prepare the monkey breakfast (cooked veggies, raw veggies, fruits, yoghurt, cottage cheese, pasta for the non-diabetics, etc., etc. - these monkeys eat better than most people). At 8:30ish, we get a breakfast break and then from 10-2, it's cleaning cages, chopping veggies or anything else that needs to be done. Then, hopefully (!!) it's lunch time and after that it's time to rake runways and prepare for the next morning's breakfast.
Tomorrow I work with the munchkins (the marmosets and tamarins) - they are cute but the marmosets are really stinky so say a prayer for me. Also, apparently some of the marmosets are kind of mean, so I need to keep my distance while feeding and cleaning. I'm sure I'll have some (more ) scratches by the end of the day!
I'll post again soon - wifi access is a bit of an issue at the monkey farm.

Me - demonstrating my fantastic poop-scooping skills!

This is Jimmy - his favourite game is to throw a handful of leaves and dirt at a person. You have to fall to the ground when he does that, because then he does his happy dance and he and his partner ChiChi hoot - they think it is hilarious!

One of the brown capuchins - they are so flirtatious. If you walk by their cage they smile at you, start screaming, hug themselves and raise their eyebrows up and down. I think this is Jack?? But I can't tell a lot of them apart yet.
