Do you need a licence to own capuchin monkey?
It depends on what state you live in. Research you state laws to determine what is required. But also research the animal before you purchase a capuchin monkey. They can be VERY aggressive, are extremely intelligent, require a lot of attention and can’t just be caged all the time. visit http://www.capuchin-monkeys.com/ for more information. Also research Capuchin in the news. Several people have been attacked by their “pet” monkey. I understand that people do it all the time, but they are not domesticated animals, they are wild animals. How fair is it to the monkey to try to domesticate an otherwise very primitive animal? Learn all you can before getting your heat set on owning one.
