A portion of proceeds from this toy will benefit AZA, and endangered species like the black-handed spider monkey. Antuco loves to gossip about the other monkeys, jabbering all day long about this one or that. But most of the monkeys try not to listen to Antuco and his rumors. Antuco is a squirrel monkey. Squirrel monkeys make continuous croaking, twittering, and barking sounds unlike any other monkey.
Squirrel monkeys are small, long-legged monkeys with very long tails.
The average member of a troupe is no larger than a squirrel - that's how they got their name. These monkeys live in the forests along the Orinoco and Amazon Rivers of South America. Maybe there are many things to gossip about there. Little Gakere knows he is not the largest or strongest animal in the jungle. That is why whenever he has a big job to do, he asks the other animals to help.
