- Summary:
- In the past 40 years, golden lion tamarins became a symbol of conservation success when a worldwide breeding and reintroduction program brought their numbers in the wild from 200 to over 3700. Then, yellow fever jumped from humans to the primates and began to decimate their population. Now, an innovative vaccination program has not only stabilized the population, but is now allowing it to recover.
