EXCITING BABY NEWS ๐
We had an amazing Easter surprise today as our Pygmy marmosets had babies ๐๐๐
Robyn gave birth to twins mid morning, her first ever babiesโฆ so forgive her if she is looking rather confused in the video ๐
She cleaned them and now you can see they are clinging on to her back with amazing camouflage!
Hopefully daddy will start to carry them too, returning them to mum for feeding.
They are the smallest monkey in the world so you can imagine how small the babies areโฆ no bigger than a human thumb! And weighing about 5-10 grams!
In the wild you can find Pygmy marmosets in the Amazon rainforest in Brazil, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, and northern Bolivia ๐ You can spot them at Exotic Zoo in the Rainforest Zone.
If you are visiting over the next few days make sure you pop in to see them but donโt forgetโฆ ๐คซ nice and quiet and no flashes if youโre taking pictures. Narration is currently turned off in the Rainforest room.
We hope you enjoy seeing them as much as we did ๐
Whatโs going on at Exotic Zoo today on this beautiful sunny day?? Well check out the video and join me in the rainforest room today for an exciting new arrival we have been working on behind the scenes recently.
Please share and help us make Easter amazing ๐
After many guesses following this mornings early start, we would like to give a warm welcome to our mother, daughter duo, Lilly and Rose our Red Fronted Brown Lemurs.
This fell at a perfect time as today is International Day of Forests as we welcome them both to our Rainforest zone.

Is this your idea of an absolute nightmare? Cockroaches may get a bad reputation, but they are actually fascinating creatures and may not be as bad as you first thought. ๐ชณ
