  1. Spider monkeys aren’t considered good pets because:

    Wild Nature: They are wild, highly social animals needing complex social groups and environments, which are hard to replicate at home.

    Space and Activity: They require lots of space to swing, climb, and explore—something typical homes can’t provide.

    Diet and Care: Their diet is specialized and challenging to maintain properly.

    Behavioral Issues: They can become aggressive, destructive, or develop psychological problems if bored or stressed.

    Legal and Ethical Concerns: Many places restrict or ban keeping them as pets due to conservation and welfare reasons.

    In short, spider monkeys thrive best in their natural habitats or specialized sanctuaries, not as household pets.
