Guenon Monkey

Guenon Monkey make gentle, trusting pets. If treated well, they typically have pleasing dispositions and like attention.

Guenon Monkeys are very diverse, intelligent, and interesting creatures, so it should be no small wonder that people like to keep them as pets. We’ve seen real and fictional people keep them as pets, like Michael Jackson or Ross from Friends.

There are almost two dozen species of guenons; the green monkey, vervet, and grivet are the most popular species kept as pets. They thrive in large groups.

The guenon monkey is a common sight in zoos around the world due to its ability to be tamed. They can reach weights of 15 pounds and reach 22 inches in height
