We have been on a tree cutting rampage in order to create more space for the growing human population. While this may sound perfectly fine for many people, doing this robs the animals of our planet their home and their food which is why many species of animals and plants are
The animal I chose to make a habitat for is the cotton-top tamarin. From my knowledge, I was able to make judicious choices that would suit a cotton-top tamarin’s likes and dislikes. Zoo exhibits already are equipped with supplies tamarins need. But the picture I drew is how I think a habitat for a cotton-top tamarin should be in a zoo exhibit.

number of changes required to make a claw into a nail or toilet claw the results from histological studies were compared to the phylogenetic tree of primates. Results: 1. All the species except Daubentonia madagascariensis and the species in Callitrichidae lack functional claws. 2. All strepsirhines including D. madagascariensis have a toilet claw on 2nd digit of the foot. 3. All the analysed species of Neotropical primates have both deep and superficial layer irrespective of whether they were
Primates have certain behavioral traits that are key to their survival which include their sociability. The reason why primates need to have sociability is because they need access to mates, food and help with avoiding predators. With that being said there are different types of social group in primates, which include: Solitary, Monogamy, Polygyny, One-Male Polygyny, Multi-Male Polygyny, Fission-Fusion Polygyny and Polyandry. The reason primates build this social interaction with one another is because
Monkeys are haplorhine primates, a group generally possessing tails and consisting of about 260 known living species.
