Golden Lion Tamarins (golden marmosets)

Golden lion tamarins typically weigh between 0.92 to 1.5 pounds (0.42 to 0.68 kg).

Golden lion tamarin monkeys have a long tail to help them balance and navigate as they move through the trees. The tail acts like a counterbalance, allowing them to make swift movements and avoid falls while leaping from branch to branch.

Yes, male and female golden lion tamarins look similar in appearance. However, males tend to be slightly larger than females. Males also have scent glands on their chests that they use for marking their territory.

There are estimated to be around 2,500 wild Golden lion tamarins left in their native forests in Brazil. Efforts are being made to protect their habitats and increase their population through conservation programs.

The scientific name for a golden lion tamarin is Leontopithecus rosalia.

In the wild, lion tamarins typically live for around 15 years. Under human care in zoos or sanctuaries, they can live up to 20 years due to access to consistent food, veterinary care, and protection from predators.

A golden lion Tamarin's body gets to be 7-8 inches and their tail gets to be about 10-13 inches long

If the golden lion tamarin became extinct, it would disrupt the balance of its ecosystem as it plays a role in seed dispersal and insect control. Its loss could also impact local biodiversity and tourism, as the species is an iconic and important part of the ecosystem it inhabits. Efforts to save the golden lion tamarin are underway to prevent such a scenario.

Climate change can affect golden lion tamarins by altering their habitat, leading to changes in temperature, precipitation, and food availability. This can impact their ability to find suitable places to live and resources to survive. Additionally, climate change can also increase the risk of extreme weather events, which can directly threaten the tamarins' survival.
