Capuchin Monkeys, Black and White-Ruffed Lemurs, Ringtailed Lemurs, Buff-Cheeked Gibbon, Squirrel Monkeys, Spider Monkeys and Black Howler Monkeys.

Will you breed with the primates who live there?

No we will not breed at all.  All the male primates will have vasectomies before being released into the Monkeyland-KZN forest.

Can I hold, touch or feed the primates at Monkeyland-KZN?

No you cannot. As with all of the SAASA sanctuaries, we have a strict hands-off policy.  Touching and petting monkeys is a form of harrasment. Follow the hashtag #HandsOffOurWildlife
