If you've always wanted to see a monkey dressed up as a lion, but have never had the speed to catch one with a leonine wig, Nature has taken care of business.
Cue the most adorable monkey this side of a pygmy marmoset: The Golden Lion Tamarin.
The GLT (not an official acronym) is a highly endangered monkey you should get to know. With his golden mane and unbelievably adorable younglings, the GLT has fruit first thing every morning and gets its hair color from sunlight (FACT).
So go on, meet 'em!
The GLT keeps track of its kids via Store-N-Carry method.
They cluck and chirp to communicate.
They eat with their mouth way, way, open.
THIS is a GLT baby.
You can hold a pair of GLT twins (which are common to the species) in one hand.
