A pair of golden lion tamarins were born at the Santa Ana Zoo in late March.  Shown here grabbing hold of mother Abril’s back, the babies will put on public display as soon as they start exploring on their own.

Golden lion tamarins are considered endangered in their native home of Brazil.

    I love watching animal planet and I haven’t seen this creature. They look so sweet and social animals. Hope Jamie Crawford on In Too Deep feature them.
