Please excuse the photo quality, I took it when I was a kid on a little point and shoot film camera.
 
@akasha Hey you shouldnt feel the need to apologise these are wonderful photos especially for someone like me who loves a trip down memory lane with Taronga in the early and mid '90s (loved seeing your Sun Bear photo too for example). A high school aquaintence of mine who is now a bit of a youtube podcaster was reminscing about the Emperor Tamarins in this exhibit on a youtube video (except he said ''those little ... what are they called? ... marmosets?? the ones with the moustaches'' lol, he's not a big animal person like us), but he was saying when he was a kid and saw them chasing eachother around this enclosure the passing keeper said it was a competition for dominace. Hearing that made me realise i never considered the dominance behaviour of the smaller primates also.
