Congrats to Chris D. from Ontario, Canada for snapping this picture-perfect photo of Fen, one of the Zoo's three Allen's swamp monkeys.
Chris D. from Ontario, Canada snapped this picture-perfect photo of Fen, one of the Zoo’s three Allen’s swamp monkeys. Fen, a 3-year-old male, lives with his older brother Peate and mother Fern in the Primate, Cat & Aquatics Building. Fen was born at the Zoo on August 1, 2009.  As you can see by the photo, Fen's diet consists of greens, carrots, sweet potatoes and a little bit of fruit.
