They live better in
the jungle.
Each person
can have in his house the pet he wants if he has enough money; but, is a monkey
a good choice? The trend of having exotic pets includes the monkey, and for a
little bit less than 3000$ you can have a completely legal monkey with all the
licenses. It is not recommended to buy a monkey without documents because it
can bring you a lot of problems.
A monkey
needs much more space and cares than any other pet; so, before searching the
monkey, you must look for a vet specialized in exotic animals, and a monkey
requires a lot of controls and revisions.
If you
still want to have a monkey, it’s time to choose the breed; the better ones are
the squirrel monkey, the capuchin monkey and the spider monkey. You should
investigate what the needs are of each one, and get the one which fits better
with you and your lifestyle. Another important fact is to have it since he is a
baby so you can educate him and make him to recognize you as part of his
family.
A monkey is
like a person that lives 40 years but with a two year old mind, so it depends a
lot on the education you give him to coexist well, you don’t have to try to
educate him to do funny things, you have to educate him to don’t bite and don’t
destroy the things at home. As I said before it is like a person so he needs a
balanced diet and exercise so you’ll need a mini gym and toys.
This animal is a pet of a high economic cost
and requires very specific things for his health, but there are things you
can’t buy, the time. A monkey owner needs a lot of free time and enthusiasm
with a good life style and a lot of space. So the conclusion we can get out
from here, is that their best home is the jungle.
