They've arrived.... It was on TV yesterday. There are about eighty of them!!!
Monkeyworld have built special accomodation for them and have saved them from a miserable life in Chilean laboritories. Well done...(I won't be going to see them though as I don't like Capuchin monkeys )

It appears that there are 88 (approx.) capuchins now at Monkey World in Dorset. None of them had apparently ever seen sunlight before, let alone been allowed to interact with fellow monkeys. They lived isolated from others, and were only taken out of their lab cages when it was time for experiments. Needless to say they will be spoiled rotten in their new exhibits...and I'm assuming that the group will be split into at least two large enclosures. Does anyone know the size and number of new capuchin exhibits?

01-02-2008

there are 2 new enclosures built for them
i am going at weekend to see them
