Can you own a monkey in Colorado?
I've always wanted a pet monkey, but I'm not sure what the laws are in my state. Can you own a monkey in Colorado?

While we totally understand why you want a pet monkey (monkeys are very cool), it is illegal to own a monkey in
Colorado
, and here are a few reasons why:- Primates are generally just incompatible with domestication
- They’re aggressive, hierarchical, and incredibly destructive indoors
- Most owners lack the space or means to care for primates and can’t provide them with the necessary enrichment and social feedback.
- Owning wild animals supports the exotic pet trade, a largely illegal industry that incentivizes cruelty towards animals by breeders
Bit of a bummer, we know. But hey, did you know you could start saving $800+ per year on car or
homeowners insurance
by downloading the Jerry
app? Jerry is a
super app
that will find customized quotes in just seconds. If you plan on owning animals of any kind, you will want to make sure your homeowners policy will cover any potential liability the animal may cause. View full answer
