👀 🐒 Up high, down low, too slow? Look fast, or you may miss a glimpse of our 2-week-old golden-headed lion tamarin, born July 15 to 5-year-old mother Lola and 8-year-old father Coco. . . . 💪 👂 Small Mammal House keepers say the newborn is very strong and tolerant of its three older siblings. The youngsters were excited and curious about the new arrival. Coco and Tom—one of the 9-month-old twins—carry the baby often! Trying to spot it? Look for its big ears, which stick out! . . . 🐵 ✨ Keepers are leaving the family to bond; it may be 6 months before they can confirm the baby’s sex. As the baby grows and becomes more independent, keepers are excited to see its personality shine! . . . 👐🌎 Help save this species! Native to Brazil, golden-headed lion tamarins are endangered due to deforestation. Much of their habitat has been cleared for agricultural use, including cattle ranching and unsustainable crops. When you shop for furniture and other décor made of wood, check that the product is sustainably sourced before you buy. Chocolate grown in special farms in golden-headed lion tamarins’ habitat can support their conservation! . . . #WeSaveSpecies . . . 📷 Who's carrying the baby? 1. Big brother Tom 2. Big brother Tom 3.
