Today is International Golden Lion Tamarin Day. The recovery of these small Brazilian monkeys - from 200 individuals in the wild in the 1960s to 3,700 in recent years - is one of the world’s most celebrated wildlife comeback stories thanks to the international efforts of a large team of committed partners.
Starting in 2018, the population crashed for the first time since the ‘60s as a wave of yellow fever that began in humans in 2016 unexpectedly started to kill the endangered tamarins, reducing the population by 32%.
Now conservationists from Save the Golden Lion Tamarin, Associação Mico Leão Dourado and partners are hoping to vaccinate the special monkeys and to use the knowledge and experience of the past few decades to increase the population yet again and to continue to conserve and restore the iconic monkeys’ home in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest.
