Happy Primate Day! 🎉
What exactly is a primate? It’s a whole order of over 500 species! This includes monkeys, apes, lemurs, lorises, galagos, and tarsiers. Primates are known for their intelligence and large brain size compared to other mammals. Most primates live in tropical or sub-tropical areas. Swing on by the Zoo to see eight different primate species!
