有人养松鼠猴?听说灵长类是保护动物来着啊.怎么可能当宠物养?

不知道你说的是不是国内？？国内的话很多保护动物都在养啊，都是偷偷养，根本管不了
宠物市场那些你来检查我就收好那些动物，你一走了我照样买~~所以各种各样的动物都被人饲养，不乏野生动物
在美国和英国的话，你看看下面的东西吧：

英国允许饲养宠物型松鼠猴，但法律规定饲养者必须遵守动物福利条例。该法律规定饲养者必须提供一个舒适的生存环境，必须配备合理的饮食，以便猴子们保持天性，居所远离猎食动物免受皮肉之苦、精神伤害乃至疾病。未能遵守此类规章者将丧失所有权，并永不得饲养同类宠物。饲养者可能需通过审核，确保灵长类动物饲养得当。

在美国，法律对松鼠猴的销售和所有权因州而异。以下法律法规对松鼠猴的所有权虽然全面，但许多州正考虑执行管制此类灵长类动物额所有权，在购买松鼠猴之前最好先咨询州政府。

由于灵长目的动物以列入华盛顿公约的保护动物，一般均不得随意饲养

松鼠猴被当作实验动物加以饲养，在数量的供应上比较稳定，是较易取得的品种。在原来的栖息地为群居生活，单独饲养较感寂寞，容易养训，紧缠着饲主。为国际二级珍稀保护动物。

所以一般是不能饲养的.
