The Journey to Jungle Friends

Zafera is a fiery little marmoset with a big personality and zero patience for nonsense. Quick to flash a threatening face at anyone who rubs her the wrong way, she’s not afraid to speak her mind, even if it’s with a glare and a dramatic tail flick! But beneath all that sass is a smart, active monkey who knows exactly what she wants: snacks, sunshine, and a front-row seat to everything happening around her.

Since arriving at Jungle Friends, Zafera has claimed her outdoor habitat like a queen claiming her throne. She’s constantly darting between her indoor and outdoor enclosures, keeping close watch on her monkey neighbors, the caregivers, and most importantly, any snack deliveries. Her favorites include cereal and just about anything crunchy.

When she’s not patrolling her domain, Zafera enjoys sunbathing, bug hunting, and showing off her acrobatic skills as she leaps through her runways. With her fierce spirit and go-go-go energy, she brings just the right amount of drama and delight to Munchkinland.

Novelist Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild, is Zafera’s spirit doppelganger because both found transformation and renewal through nature. Just as Strayed sought healing and rediscovered her strength during her epic hike, chronicled in Wild, Zafera found her true self in the freedom of the outdoors at Jungle Friends.

Zafera’s "Oh, you caught me!" face – always curious, always on alert, and never missing a beat in her outdoor kingdom.

Once withdrawn, now Zafera shines with life as she embraces her role as the sanctuary’s most curious lookout, always eager to see what’s happening around her.

Zafera pauses between her bug-hunting adventures, basking in the freedom that her new home has brought her.

Zafera’s journey from sadness to sass is on full display as she surveys her surroundings, a lively reminder of her newfound love for the great outdoors.
