A group of wild but non-native monkeys on the island of Sint Maarten is at the center of a controversial debate over their future. The government of Sint Maarten received a letter in March 2023, signed by 75 experts in primate and animal protection, urging them to reconsider plans to cull these monkeys as a means of population control. Born Free USA, a renowned animal protection organization, leads the effort to save these monkeys.

Despite the expertise behind this plea, the government has yet to respond, leaving the fate of these animals hanging in the balance.
