Picasso, formerly known as (Fatso), was originally kept as a ‘pet’, however, he came to Jungle Friends from another sanctuary where they were unable to manage his obesity. Picasso is on medication and has lost weight. He is getting around his habitat much better and enjoying his new monkey friends. With his "well-fed" stature and unusual blue eyes, Picasso stands out among the other spider monkeys. His piercing blue eyes will mesmerize.
