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 Wisconsin sees long, cold winters and warm, 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 Wisconsin buyer through this at reservation time.
