DESCRIPTION: A documentation of female mating behavior in Capuchin monkeys taken at Parque Machia Animal Refuge in Villa tunari, Bolivia. Capuchins do not seem to sexually discriminate between some species as these affects were clearly directed at the camera man.
Many of the capuchins at the refuge are from private ownerships where they suffered a great deal of abuse and neglect. At the refuge we prepare them for release. Capuchins are wonderful animals but they have not been bred for domestication and should not be.
