It's the British Mothers day this Sunday and the there is a new born baby at the Twycross Zoo in England! What a sight. A silvery Marmoset, a new world monkey with predominantly white fur and a dark tail become a new mum and the baby is just so damn cute. I guess it can't be much older than a few days old. It clinging on to mums back and even when another Marmoset jumps over her and steps on the new born baby or when mum scratches herself and causes a lot of vibration the little one is holding on. With A close up look on the baby you can just see that little heart beating up and down. Just wait until you see the infant yawn! It must be one of the cutest yawns that you will ever see. Mum is also very protective, when another monkey tries to have a good sniff of the baby, mum quickly turns around and smacks the other silvery Marmoset.
The marmosets reach a size of 18 to 28 cm and only weight about 300g. They are very nosy animals and investigate everything new. The diet of the Silvery Marmosets predominantly consists of tree sap.
Interesting fact: When something threatens them Silvery marmosets wiggle their eyebrows and smack their lips together to scare it away.
