Forrest arrived at Jungle Friends in April of 2015 along with 32 other cotton-top tamarins after the lab where they’d previously lived closed its doors. Though Forrest is fairly cautious around people, he quickly took to his outdoor habitat and spends most of his time outside. He has one of the lushest habitats in all of Munchkinland, and he loves to hide in the dense foliage where he can hunt for plant-dwelling spiders and beetles. While you can’t see him, his excited chirps and whistles are unmistakable!
