Hoy es viernes de voluntarios! Here is a day in the life video from Kaitlyn, our capuchin researcher 🔍🐒
🏝️ Capuchin island is home to our 5 resident male capuchins, where they live a semi-free life in the wild. That way, even though they are not release candidates, they can still live a mostly wild life.
🐒 We have recently accepted another male from a zoo who could mo longer care for him, and he had been getting to know the others on the island in a habituation enclosure for the last two weeks!
🔍 Our capuchin researchers are observing the behaviors of the group, and will continue monitoring the dynamic after the new individual has been fully released on the island.
📸 Additionally, we have been using camera traps to monitor their interactions with the newcomer when we are not there, in case human presence has an effect on their behaviors.
On we will share content from our volunteers, so that you can get a glimpse of life in the jungle from their perspective 🌿
