Last weekend, a 2-year-old female spider monkey wa Last weekend, a 2-year-old female spider monkey was found in someone’s front yard in a suburb of San Antonio. She was wearing a diaper and had an eye injury. A few hours later, the City of San Antonio Animal Care Services delivered her to Primarily Primates for permanent placement. She’s eating, vocalizing, playing and allowing the sanctuary’s veterinary team to treat her eye so she can see out of both eyes again. Spider monkeys can not be legally held as pets in San Antonio. She was likely smuggled from Mexico over the border, just like the other three spider monkey babies the sanctuary recently made its residents.  Please consider making a donation to Primarily Primates through the link jn our bio to support loving, lifetime care for Sybil. ❤️❤️❤️

Nova, Felix, and Simon are now the best of friends Nova, Felix, and Simon are now the best of friends 🫶 These three are all former pets- something FoA and PPI advocate against, but we are grateful that they are now in our care✨After successfully introducing them all, they are thriving in their own enclosure where they will remain until they are big and strong enough to be with the adult spider monkeys 🐒 

These babies are now receiving the care, nourishment, and enrichment they need to live long and healthy lives in a space where they choose how to spend their days🌞 PPI is part of the Wildlife Confiscations Network, and is one of the first sanctuaries called when an exotic pet is confiscated. PPI then commits to providing lifelong care of the highest caliber, as FoA continues to advocate for federal laws that prohibit keeping primates as pets 🚫
