Squirrel Monkey
Soft whiskers, tiny paws and huge personalities — prepare for maximum ‘aww’! Come and meet Squirrel Monkey — a treasured resident of our tropical sanctuary in Epping. Stand quietly, watch closely, and you might spot a blink, a stretch, or a cheeky scramble that makes you fall in love in five seconds flat. Behind every smile is a story. Animals like Squirrel Monkey often arrive because a home changed, a rescue needed space, or someone realised wild beauty deserves expert care. We promise warmth, the right food, enrichment and keepers who know each personality. When a child presses their nose to the glass and whispers ‘hello’, that second chance becomes a lifelong memory — for them and for Squirrel Monkey. Common squirrel monkey is the traditional common name for several small squirrel monkey species native to the tropical areas of South America. The term common squirrel monkey had been used as the common name for Saimiri sciureus before genetic research by Jessica Lynch Alfaro and others indicated S. scuireus covered at least three and possibly four species: the Guianan squirrel monkey, Humboldt's squirrel monkey and Collins' squirrel monkey. Adults often remember: Common name for multiple mammal species. At Get To Know Animals we turn those wild facts into daily care — the right heat, humidity, UV where needed, climbing or digging space, and food that matches what Squirrel Monkeys evolved to eat. It costs over £35,000 every month to feed, heat and care for 300+ animals. Fresh veg, quality pellets, mountains of bedding, enrichment and emergency vet funds mean even ‘small’ mammals cost hundreds of pounds a year each. Adopting Squirrel Monkey, sponsoring a meal, funding the wish list or joining Patreon isn’t ‘extra’ — it’s how Squirrel Monkey eats next Tuesday when the weather is quiet and the till is slow. You can help today: adopt Squirrel Monkey, buy a treat, play Get To Feed Animals, or become a monthly patron. Every pound is love you can measure in full bowls, warm lamps and wagging (or flicking) tails.
