Who sells marmoset monkeys?

Anyone who is after a quick profit and likes animal cruelty. Marmosets, like all primates, do not make good pets. They are not domesticated (or tame). In addition, marmosets spray (pee, a lot, smells musky!), bite, get aggressive over their territory, and need a companion of the same species.

You do not want to buy a monkey, get a dog/cat/hamster. Cheaper to buy, cheaper to take to the vet, and it won't make your house smell from their spray, or bite you (and then end up being put down, or taken to an already over-flowing primate sanctuary).

Are baboons evil?

Yes; anything that climbs on top of your car at a zoo and pulls your windscreen wipers clean off has got to be the spawn of Satan. To make matters worse, they arrogantly wave their multi-colored butts in your face and poop in your engine just to rub it all in! I mean, to think that our DNA only differs from theirs by 2% brings forward some serious questions about the human race (virtually all of which you can type into the search bar with varying results).

Does tiger eat plant?

Tigers are pure carnivores. They prefer hunting large ungulates such as chital, sambar, gaur, and to a small extent also barasingha, water buffalo, nilgai, serow and takin. Among the medium-sized prey species they frequently kill wild boar, and occasionally hog deer, muntjac and Gray langur. Small prey species such as porcupines, hares and peafowl are also hunted and form a very small part in their diet. Sometimes, they also prey on domestic livestock too that wander off into the jungles

They stay hidden and move near the unsuspecting prey. Once they are near enough, they pounce and take the prey down. They go for the throat and strangulate their prey.

What do baby pygmy marmosets eat?

Pygmy marmosets eat sap and gum from trees, which are located within their territories. They use their claws to drill a hole into the tree. The pygmy marmosets wait for the sap to ooze out of the hole they created. They immediately suck the sap form the hole. Sap is the most important food in their diet, without it they would not survive in the wild. Pygmy marmosetsare gumnivors. Pygmy marmosets also eat spiders, butterflies, frogs, lizards, snails, small, juicy buds, flowers and grasshoppers. Grasshoppers are pygmy marmosets' favorite food. To catch one a pygmy marmoset may even venture down to the ground. Something they rarely do. When catching butterflies, the pygmies go and eat sap. The sap attracts the butterflies, which are then easy to catch.

What animal hunts baboons?

Baboons need to hunt in order to survive. Baboons eat a lot more meat than other primates. Mostly these are insects, snails and other invertebrates. But they also eat small mammals if they get the chance. They commonly kill and eat hares, birds, young antelopes and even fellow primates such as bushbabies and young vervet monkeys. Their large size also allows them to overcome and kill, when hunting in a group, larger prey such as gazelle kids. They have large impressive canines, their main weapons of defence and offence. Yellow baboons have been observed hunting down hares and digging out burrowing mammals. The chacma and olive baboon gorges on grasshoppers and scale insects when there are infestations of these insects, ignoring all other food. Olive baboons also hunt hares and larger mammals like vervet monkeys and infant gazelles. Those living on the coast may hunt molluscs, crabs and other marine life. So in answer to your question, they hunt to survive to provide for themselves and their families otherwise how else are they going to eat? They live off of not only fruit but meat. In order to get the meat they need to kill the animal..

Yes. Baboons are Omnivores. This means they are herbivores and carnivores. They are mainly herbivores but do eat the odd baby gazelle if one is around.

I have seen some terrible footage of Baboons eating a living baby Gazelle alive, but I think they don't know any better.
