Squirrel Monkeys are highly active and need generous vertical climbing space year-round, with extra shade and airflow in hot stretches. Since Arkansas sees humid subtropical with hot summers and mild winters, enclosures should prioritize shade, airflow, and misting systems during peak summer months; heating needs are minimal in winter. We walk every Arkansas buyer through this at reservation time.
