Maggie is one of 11 cotton-top tamarins that arrived at Jungle Friends after the lab where they had previously lived closed its doors. Maggie is a very calm and even-tempered tamarin who took quickly to the outdoors. She spends much of her time sitting in the sun in her outdoor runway, watching both monkeys and people as they go about their days. She’s always very curious about the contents of her food bowl in the morning, and will happily grab her favorites and take them outside so she can eat while she basks in the Florida sunshine.
