Primate of the Day
My name is Zoë and I am a college student who is taking a very interesting anthropology class called ‘Intro to Primates’. The more I learn about primatology and primates, the more I love it! So I thought it would be a fun project to make a tumblr where I have a Primate of the Day, post a picture and a little info.
