Lyn was confiscated by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service after a major federal investigation into illegal breeding and trafficking on the Dark Web. She was one of eight monkeys rescued on March 31, 2025. Despite her difficult start, Lyn has settled into sanctuary life with a flair all her own.

She adores her blanket and is rarely seen without it, often carrying it around like a prized possession. But her true signature move is mealtime. Lyn does not just eat, she performs. Every piece of food is carefully displayed to her caregivers as if she is putting on “dinner and a show.” Watching her enjoy her favorite foods has become one of the daily highlights for those who care for her.

Together with Beth and Paul, Lyn has found safety, and the freedom to express her unique personality. With her love of comfort and her playful sense of showmanship, Lyn is thriving in her forever "almost wild" home.
