Disney’s Animal Kingdom just got a whole lot cuter with the arrival of a second set of critically endangered cotton-top tamarin triplets this year! These pint-sized primates made their debut on Discovery Island, and park officials couldn’t be more excited. With their distinctive white tufts of hair and lively personalities, these tamarins are sure to capture the hearts of Disney guests.

Weighing just a single pound in adulthood, these tiny tamarins pack a big punch when it comes to athleticism, able to leap up to 15 feet from a standing position! It’s a superpower worthy of any Disney hero. The tamarin triplets are busy bonding with their family, and their parents—who share parenting duties—can be seen carrying their babies on their backs until they’re about 14 weeks old. Talk about teamwork!

With only about 6,000 cotton-top tamarins left in the wild, every new birth is something to celebrate. So next time you’re exploring Animal Kingdom, make sure to stop by Discovery Island to see these adorable monkeys in action—you might even catch them in one of their 15-foot flying leaps!
