Chester Zoo New primate species???

ISIS lists chester as having 2.0 Eastern Pygmy Marmosets. Anyone that can confirm this. I do trust this as chester are one of the zoos which does update their ISIS records regulary as they already have put on the new meerkats and scimitar horned oryx.

Yup - these are now in the old Pied Tamarin exhibit, though when we were there the other week it wasn't certain if they were properly on show yet.

Went today, no labelling at the enclosure yet. No sign of the marmosets either, the glass was 85-90% obscured by condensation.

I was there yesterday too, but couldn't see any sign of the marmosets (despite a concerted effort).
