Black lion tamarin

Durrell field programme

Durrell Wildlife Park

Conservation partner

Once thought to be extinct but rediscovered in the 1970s, the black lion tamarin (BLT) is now found only in São Paulo, Brazil. High levels of deforestation have dramatically reduced the BLT's habitat and left this species in a precarious state. Learn what steps Durrell, together with local partner and Brazilian NGO IPÊ, is taking to conserve this species.
