synopsis

Trapped in the fast-expanding city of Manaus, the Pied tamarin has one of the smallest ranges of any primate in the world and is now the most endangered. Scientists estimate that there are just a few hundred Pied tamarins left, and as their home city continues to expand this number continues to drop. Fortunately, Marcelo Gordo has dedicated his life to saving this endearing species and as human populations worldwide encroach on rainforests, the tamarins could offer a vital insight into diseases such as Covid-19 - that leap from animals to humansbefore they spiral out of control.
