Can you keep a monkey in Scotland as a pet?

Pet marmosets are permitted in the UK.

Bear in mind, however, that marmosets are not pets: they are intelligent, unpredictable and social animals and are difficult and expensive to look after. Unless you can keep them in top quality zoo conditions, including indoor and outdoor enclosures, enclosure designs, maintaining and controlling social groups, nutrition, evacuation procedures in emergencies, procedures in case of escape, etc, then you shouldn't own one. Too many such animals have been abused by being kept in neglectful conditions, and the RSPCA deals with many such abused animals that have developed health disorders or neurotic behaviour as the result of being kept as exotic pets by people who had simply no understanding of the animals' needs.

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.

-Dolphins (known to be self-aware)

-Elephants (known to be self-aware)

-Horses

Other animals that are considered intelligent but vary from source to source:

-Owls

-Whales

-Raccoons

-Parrots

-Squirrels

-Pigeons

*Self-aware in this case is described as an animal's ability to pass the mirror-test. The mirror-test entails: marking the skin of a sedated or sleeping animal somewhere on their body that is not directly visible but can be seen in a mirror, then allowing the animal to see itself in the mirror. If the animal reacts by spontaneously grooming that area (aka notices the mark) it recognizes itself in the mirror and is said to be self-aware.
