Capuchin Monkey in Costa Rica
Cebus imitator
The most reliable place to see the capuchin monkey in Costa Rica is Guanacaste’s dry forest — Santa Rosa and Palo Verde — and the Pacific parks, best Year-round. Habituated troops in the dry-forest parks make this one of the most reliable mammals to photograph, without baiting — the work is behaviour and light, not finding them.
