emperor tamarins are very jumpy and agile.
Emperor Tamarins primarily eat fruit, insects, nectar, and small vertebrates. Their diet consists of a variety of food sources found in their tropical rainforest habitat.
Emperor tamarins are typically found in tropical rainforest habitats, where temperatures range from about 20 to 30 degrees Celsius (68 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit). They thrive in warm, humid environments, which are essential for their survival and well-being. These tamarins are native to the Amazon Basin, particularly in regions of Brazil, Peru, and Bolivia.
Emperor tamarins live in tropical forests of Brazil (States of Acre and Amazonas), Peru, and Bolivia.
The main predators of emperor tamarins are large birds of prey such as hawks and eagles, as well as wild cats like jaguars and ocelots. Loss of habitat due to deforestation and human encroachment also poses a significant threat to the survival of emperor tamarins.

The vast majority of the emperor tamarins diet consists of plant matter. They are also known to eat fruit, tree sap, insects, and small vertebrates. Occasionally they will rob birds' nests of their eggs. The types of insects they feed on include locusts, beetles, butterflies, spiders, and ants. The small vertebrates include lizards and tree frogs. The small size of the Emperor tamarin aids them in eating food that other large primates are unable to obtain.
Captain James Cook discovered them in 1700s.
