NRDC: OnEarth Magazine, Fall 2007 - Frontlines Anne Savage first became entranced with the rare cottontop tamarin in the 1980s as a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin, where she studied the reproductive biology of the squirrel-size primate in captivity. As many as 30,000 cottontops were exported to the United States for biomedical research in the 1960s and 1970s, leading the tiny monkey to become one of the most endangered primates in the world. Surveys of local communities show that today more than 98 percent of people understand the cottontop's rarity, and many say they have become passionate about protecting their "ambassador monkey." Savage is now completing the first full cottontop census and hopes that these attitudes will be reflected in rebounding tamarin populations. www.nrdc.org /onearth/07fal/frontlines.asp   (1006 words)

Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Callitrichinae The subfamily includes several genera, including the marmosets and tamarins. Until recently this group of animals were regarded as a separate family, called the Callitrichidae, and this classification will still be encountered in much current literature. It is now thought that this flexible system, with a tendency towards polyandry, may be the typical mating system among hapalines, though until field studies on more species have been completed any generalisation must be tentative. www.reference.com /browse/wiki/Callitrichidae   (386 words)
