Wrapping Up Day 1 1. How do you think scientists in Washington, D.C. use the notes from Brazilian observers? 2. Why do you think the tamarins are first placed in cages when they reach the Brazilian preserve?

Wrapping Up Day 2 What qualities do you think a good tamarin observer should have? Why? What do you think the Golden Lion Tamarin Conservation Program will have to do to reach its goal of placing 2,000 tamarins in the wild by 2025?

Canopy the high, sheltering branches of the rain forest

Captive captured, held against one’s will

Dilemma a situation in which one is given a difficult choice to make

extinction the condition of having died out

genes tiny pieces of matter in cells that carry the blueprints for characteristics

habitat a natural environment for native creatures

Humid air that is really hot and sticky. This happens when there is a lot of water vapor in the air.

Observation the act of paying close attention

Predators animals that prey on others

reintroduce the process of returning animals to their native habitats
