Grew up watching go diego and remember the first time these species were mentioned many times in many episodes and have just had a special place in my heart for them ever since

My favorite part was at the very end when he grabbed the little dead bug hanging off of the web.

They are so impressive when you see them in the wild. They jump, run and scamper so fast you can hardly keep your eyes on them

I’ve seen Pygmy marmosets in the zoo. They’re so tiny you could hardly see them among the branches and leaves. They’re super cute.

Would love to have these guys scampering around instead of squirrels and chipmunks

More footage of the animals, less footage of the filmmakers.

You know, I saw one in a veterinarian's hospital, but it couldn't come out of its cage until treated! I couldn't even touch it!
