like all pigmies they have to be handled with care, especially when handling their marmosets, which can be quite painful for the pygmy.

The best way to get the marmoset off the pygmy is to distract it with something shiny and tug them off while they look another way. But don't get them wet and you will hopefully have many years of use from them. Most people put them around their neck to ward off evil spirits.

Pygmy marmosets are endangered because of human encroachment. Due to human overpopulation, the marmosets' habitat is being destroyed. Marmosets are the smallest monkeys in the world.
