Full Version: What is this?
This isn't a cryptid. I came across this pic when downloading pics of various animals on limewire. I just want to know what it is. My husband and I have no idea. Maybe one of you guys can help me out?

That's a Capuchin (I think)
Yup, a monkey it is.
Hi,

That is an Emperor Tamarin (Saguinus imperator) and is native to the lowland, evegreen, and broadleaf forests of Brazil and Peru.

Stick it in the oven for an hour or two, sprinkle some salt and a splash of BBQ sauce and you've got a tasty little monkey
Hehe, but seriously, he is a little cutey.
I bet he's very popular with all the female monkeys!

No, I don't think capuchins have whiskers, do they?
As it was said before, it is the Emperor Tamarin, not a capuchin
It has a funny story concerning its name: When it was discovered in 1907, the first specimen was taken to be stuffed, the guy who did it(I don't know the term for this job) thought that the ends of its moustache are pointing upwards. With this slight altering, the monkey resembled the Prussian emperor, William II. This mistake caused the name 'emperor'
William II

a person who stuffs a dead animal is known as a sicko.....
