Squirrel Monkey Island at Wissel Zoo, Epe, 01/06/12

Home to Peruvian Squirrel Monkeys.

They peruvian squirrel monkeys left the zoo in 2010 to Aqua Zoo, the squirrel monkeys that live here now are South American squirrel monkeys (Saimiri sciureus).

Are you sure? The animals' heads are entirely the wrong colour for sciureus - they certainly look like boliviensis of some description: http://www.zoochat.com/229/peruvian-squirrel-monkey-wissel-zoo-epe-277797/

True, they indeed don't look like sciureus on your picture.

Strange, because in 2010 they changed squirrel monkeys with Aqua Zoo, the peruvians went to auqa zoo and the sciureus to Epe. In 2010 I saw sciureus on this island and I haven't heard of a change, but according to your photo their has been a change. In april this year the squirrel monkeys in Aquz zoo proved to peruvians, so where these monkeys come from???

The mystery deepens. Zootierliste still only lists sciureus. Odd.
