The indoor exhibit for cotton-top tamarins (Saguinus oedipus) inside the Chimpanzee House in Givskud Zoo.
Currently these exhibits houses a small group of cotton-top tamarins whose exhibit was recently demolished to make way for the giant otters.
The Chimpanzee House opened in 1987 and a group of ring-tailed lemurs (Lemur catta) moved into this exhibit in 1988. However, this group did not work and the lemurs were sent away in 1998.
Over the next few years this exhibit functioned as an additional exhibit, housing a variety of other animals including silvery-cheeked hornbills (Bycanistes brevis) and guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus). In 2009 the red-fronted lemurs moved in and in 2012 the cotton-top tamarins.
