Raising a Spider Monkey in North Dakota

Brace yourself—this family in Lisbon, North Dakota, didn’t just adopt a pet; they welcomed a full-time, furry boss named Fynn, a two-year-old spider monkey who demands diapers, 24/7 supervision, and a mountain of paperwork just to legally live with them. From USDA licensing to liability insurance, the hoops were insane—and that’s before you factor in the chaos of daily life: no errands without Fynn, no leaving him alone, and a personality that swings from sweet to wild in seconds. Raising him feels like parenting a human infant… but with claws, a tail, and a 50-year lifespan. If you think a monkey is just a cute cuddle buddy, this family’s story is your reality check.
