Ok so I’m doing behavioral research on White-faced Capuchins right now in Costa Rica and since I’m the only one working with them right now I get to name them. Obviously, I named them after Marvel characters (except for the one named Kevin). So every day I get to go out into the field and what results is basically a soap opera. I’ll keep you guys updated but currently, Clint (he’s the only baby in the troop) is being babysat by Natasha, Sam and Bruce are eating together, and Steve has tried to threaten me

So I’m analyzing the data I have right now (pretty much quantifying behaviors that I recorded in voice recordings) and I would like you all to know that on Saturday, March 16th at 2:02 pm Steve, Bucky, Loki, Natasha, and Peter were all hanging out with each other in a mango tree
