Unknown Capuchin (Austin Zoo)

I would say by looking at this photo and the zoo's photos this looks like a Wedge-Capped Capuchin (Cebus olivaceus). If not then some sort of hybrid.

I agree that this is a Weeper Capuchin.

@ThylacineAlive Great. Thanks y’all. A new species for me. They had two, but only this one made an appearance. I believe this ones over 30.

@nczoofan Wow! Old guy, didn't know we had any in the US.

@ThylacineAlive Me neither, until I arrived at there exhibit. Makes up for the genet being a no-show

Doing some research I can’t find a single zoo with them besides the Austin Zoo. Their is a small population kept as pets though. Texas for examples got real lax laws on this. I kinda wish the zoo (which lists how each animal was acquired. These being former pets), would better educate on how monkeys don’t make good pets. But oh well

@ThylacineAlive There's a few.

@nczoofan It's the only true zoo with them, but there's several odd places, along with a few primate sanctuaries, organ grinders, traveling zoos, etc.
