Poppi arrived at Jungle Friends with 32 other cotton-top tamarins after the lab where they’d lived their entire lives closed its doors. One of the oldest monkeys in that group, Poppi adjusted incredibly well to his new life here and has been having a blast at Jungle Friends! Despite having never been outside before arriving here, Poppi absolutely loves spending time in his outdoor habitat- so much so that he often has to be called inside when it’s time for him to eat! This old man can often be found at the very top of habitat, where he can watch his monkey friends go about their days.
