WASHINGTON -- Biologist Carlos Ruiz has spent a quarter-century working to save golden lion tamarins, the charismatic long-maned monkeys native to Brazil's Atlantic Forest.

While the scientists follow government guidelines, they know that people intent on illegally exploiting the rainforests are still entering the parks, because several motion-activated research cameras have been smashed.

Maybe it was because the media and governments made it sound like we were the endangered species. Kind of doesn’t matter about a couple of monkeys in a jungle when your life is on the line now does it!! Another stupid article CTV. You are fast becoming endangered as well!!

And no one cared...

Love these parody accounts.

The CULT of the Lefts BS...... while the left put madness in place that helped Destroy BILLIONS of animals lives during the FIRES in Australia last year. The insane left helped end many endangered species with their CULT of CO2 rules.
