The marmosets (/ˈmɑːrməˌzɛts, -ˌsɛts/) are 22 New World monkey species of the genera Callithrix, Cebuella, Callibella, and Mico. All four genera are part of the biological family Callitrichidae. The term marmoset is also used in reference to the Goeldi's marmoset, Callimico goeldii, which is closely related.
Most marmosets are about 20 centimetres (8 in) long. Relative to other monkeys, they show some apparently primitive features: they have claws rather than nails, and tactile hairs on their wrists. They lack wisdom teeth, and their brain layout seems to be relatively primitive. Their body temperature is unusually variable, changing by up to 4 °C (7 °F) in a day. Marmosets are native to South America and have been found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay and Peru. They have also been spotted in Central America and Mexico. They are also raised in captivity as pets.
According to recent research, marmosets exhibit germline chimerism, which is not known to occur in nature in any primates other than callitrichids. Ninety-five percent of marmoset fraternal twins trade blood through chorionic fusions, making them hematopoietic chimeras.
Nat Geo Wild (stylized as Nat Geo WILD or abbreviated as NGW) is a cable/satellite TV channel focused primarily on wildlife and natural history programming.

Scientists used to think humans were the only primates who learned to speak, in part, by mimicking mom and dad, but marmoset monkeys has shown that we’re not all that unique in our learned communication. Learn more - http://scim.ag/1TyoaKZ Read the research - http://scim.ag/1KjEfPH

The marmoset
I was on top of the world
When I met a pretty girl
And she was very cruel
And kept beneath her shoe
That that's neat
My so not sing
Was a no longer human being
And the universe was empty
Then she left me for a journey
Alright
