Golden Lion Tamarins are critically endangered due to their habitat being shrunken down into small unconnected areas. They live in southeastern Brazil and normally have up to 2 offspring but can have triplets and quadruplets. They get their names from their impressive manes. Hopefully lion tamarin monkeys will increase in population soon.
