Derby’s mate is about a year and a half old her name has been given but no more details will be given here. wallabies are mainly solitary but will gather together when there’s an abundance of resources such as food, water or shelter. When they do gather in groups, they have a social hierarchy similar to other wallaby species. Wallabies are mainly crepuscular. They spend most of the daytime resting in vegetation.

Mac Our Black Spider Monkey

Mac Our Black Spider Monkey

Mac is our new Black Spider Monkey. He is four months old and loves to stay clinging on to everything and everyone. He love attention and people at all times. A very demanding little fellow. We started introducing  solid foods, but we give him formula for most part. These New World primates are social and gather in groups of up to two or three dozen animals. At night, these groups split up into smaller sleeping parties of a half dozen or fewer. Foraging also occurs in smaller groups, and is usually most intense early in the day. Spider monkeys find food in the treetops and feast on nuts, fruits, leaves, bird eggs, and spiders. They can be noisy animals and often communicate with many calls, screeches, barks, and other sounds.

Typically, females give birth to only a single baby every two to five years. Young monkeys depend completely on their mothers for about ten weeks, but after that time they begin to explore on their own and play amongst themselves. Mothers continue to care for their young for the first year of their lives, and often move about with their offspring clinging to their backs. Feel free to visit his gallery for more pictures.
