Last update I have they are legal in the State of New York, but you have to check the county and city in which you live. They can be regulated by any level of government. I know they are illegal in New York City. Contact the Special Licenses and Permits - Division of Fish, Wildlife & Marine Resources, (518) 402-8985 for more up to date information. Please research monkeys thoroughly before making the leap into monkey ownership. It can be the best experience of your life or the worst. It all depends on how you arm yourself.

∙ 15y agoOwnership of a primate should not be taken lightly. Primates have long lifespans ranging from 20-40+ years. One must thoroughly research and be willing to commiting to animals and all the work entailed for the duration of the animal's life. Monkeys are MUCH MORE work than a dog or cat.
