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 Ohio sees cold winters with heavy snowfall and humid 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 Ohio buyer through this at reservation time.
