Nakhon Ratchasima Zoo has welcome a new addition - a baby white-ear marmoset - although the zoo officials could not tell its gender because it kept hanging onto its mother's back. The baby marmoset was born on June 12.

 

Marmosets with relatively long tails are of the New World monkey species native to South America. They are known as the smallest monkeys in the world and can weigh up to 700 grams.
