Play Time with Mico






Play Time with Mico
Play time with a baby pygmy marmoset named Mico. Mico was hand reared at the Rare Species Conservatory Foundation, www.rarespecies.org, because his mother died giving birth to him. He is now grown up and housed in a large, outdoor enclosure with a female marmoset named Trixie. He is not a pet, and is part of a cpative breeding program for pygmy marmosets, which are threatened in the wild. You can "friend" Mico on Facebook! Look for Mico MightyMarmoset! He also has his own clothing and accessory line at www.zazzle.com/rarespec. Sales proceeds support wildlife conservation!
