The exact range of the Capuchin monkey is not known, although it is assumed that they inhabit a large range in Brazil and other parts of Latin America. Capuchin monkeys usually live in large groups (10 - 35 individuals) within the forest, although they can easily adapt to places colonized by humans. Each group is wide-ranging, as members must search for the best areas to feed. They communicate with each other using various calls. Capuchins can jump up to nine feet (three meters), and they use this mode of transport to get from one tree to another. To mark their territories, Capuchin monkeys leave a scent by soaking their hands and feet in urine. Remaining hidden among forest vegetation for most of the day, Capuchin monkeys sleep on tree branches and descend to the ground only to find drinking water.

Most Monkey species, including the capuchin, need a Dangerous wild animal license to own. A license can only be granted by your local authority and the minimum age is 18.

Capuchin monkeys are not pets; they are intelligent, unpredictable and social animals and are difficult and expensive to look after. By law you have to provide a suitable enclosure, such as indoor and outdoor enclosures with double doors, heating, lighting, ventilation, nutrition, specialist vet, insurance, evacuation procedures in emergencies, procedures in case of escape. The license has to be renewed every year, including inspections.

Capuchins are exotic pets and due to people taking them out of their habitat I don't think there are a lot of legal places to get one.

A person can buy a Capuchin monkey from a reputable breeder. There are many states that have banned their ownership including California and New York.
