Lincoln is a black tufted-ear marmoset. He was kept as a pet, but his guardians realized that Lincoln needed monkey friends rather than continuing a life isolated from other monkeys. Luckily, Lincoln, who goes by the nickname Link, found a new home at Jungle Friends! While Jungle Friends has been a huge change for little Link, he's adjusted incredibly well! When he first arrived, he spent his first few days hiding in his carrying cage and was very wary of his new caregivers. Once he had a few days to adjust though, he began warming up to the new people around him, and now he gets a huge kick out of jumping onto the sides of his habitat and right into people's face when they're not expecting it! He's also one of the most acrobatic monkeys in all of Munchkinland. When he's out in his habitat, he can often be seen leaping off of a prop and flying through the air to his destination!
