William was the first pied tamarin that I hand-reared.

It is also home to one of the most endangered primates in Brazil, the Pied tamarin.

Martin Hughes-Games investigates the plights of the panda, the pied tamarin and the rhino.

There are therefore multiple threats to the long term survival of the pied tamarin that stem from habitat destruction and from interspecific competition.

Wildlife is plentiful, even within the city, and it is home to the Pied Tamarin, one of Brazil's most endangered primates.

The pied tamarin (Saguinus bicolor) is an endangered primate species found in a restricted area in the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest.

A margay was observed to imitate the call of a pied tamarin infant while in the presence of a group of adult tamarins, leading the adults to investigate.

There has been one report of a margay using mimicry of the cry of an infant pied tamarin to try to lure an adult tamarin within striking distance.

Margays have recently been discovered to hunt by mimicking the vocalisation of a prey species, Wild Pied Tamarin (Saguinus bicolor), which has been compared by scientists to tool-use by monkeys.

There appears to be interspecific competition between the pied tamarin and the red-handed tamarin with the red-handed tamarin gradually displacing the pied tamarin from areas of its historical distribution.

Populations of red-handed tamarins appear to be expanding into the historical range of the pied tamarin, with the red-handed tamarin gradually displacing the pied tamarin through interspecific competition.
