Capuchins and Missouri's Climate
Capuchins are long-lived and intelligent, so their housing needs to stay climate-appropriate and enrichment-rich across every season, not just extreme weather. Since Missouri sees humid continental with cold winters and hot summers, indoor heated space is essential from late fall through early spring — outdoor time must be limited or supplemented with heat lamps once temperatures drop below 65°f. We walk every Missouri buyer through this at reservation time.
