Adopt-a-Monkey Program

Pitufo

Pitufo suffered some tragic losses when he was an adolescent, including the deaths of both of his parents and the loss of his left hand. In 2013 he surprised us all by finally migrating and becoming alpha male of a new group! Unfortunately, being the alpha males comes with increased risk and danger, and recently Pitufo was forced out of this group and has disappeared from the study site. You can still friend Pitufo and learn all about his exciting life through photos and videos.

Please go to his facebook page here to learn more background about his life and send him a friend request for free.

If you enjoy receiving live status updates, photos, and videos about the monkeys of Lomas Barbudal, please consider donating to this organization to keep this project running. This is a rare opportunity to gain insight into the intimate life of a white faced capuchin monkey through Susan Perry's life work.
