Sagui-de-tufo-preto ou Mico estrela

Callithrix penicillata

Notes:

These tamarins live free inside the Parque do Sabiá (Trush's Park), a municipal park located in Uberlandia, Minas Gerais, Brazil. They are accustomed to the presence of humans, who often feed them, though it is forbidden. They are courious, and don't fear human presence, comming very close to them. I took photo #3 when a juvenile was trying to reach my camera.
