Patas Monkeys are ground-dwelling and built for open terrain, so they need a large, secure outdoor run sized to the local temperature swings. Since North Carolina sees mild, humid subtropical with short winters, housing needs are moderate — some supplemental heat on the coldest nights, with shade and ventilation for humid summer stretches. We walk every North Carolina buyer through this at reservation time.
