There are also small populations have been introduced into south Florida and and some islands in the Caribbean. This small primate lives in the middle canopy, but will occasionally come to the ground or go up into the top canopy.

They feed on both plant materials, such as various rainforest fruits and will also eat any insects they catch. They are generally very social animals, living in groups which affords them more protection from predators.
