Inmediately starts ISN's. Without ss. But with tip coiling. [drawing of a tail] Extreme. But without (underlined) TR. This alerts all the other Tamarnis. They utter LSN's too. All run away a few hundred yards. Retreat largely horizontal,but some vertical hopping between branches, (Note: the fast that these animals tend to move horizontally may be an other indication that hey are relatively large. Again the Pinche's). After moving off the few hundred yards, the tamarins settle down again. Revert to earlier undisturbed vocs., (underlined) in (underlined) spite (underlined)of (underlined) the (underlined) fail (underlined) that (underlined) one (underlined)of (underlined) the (underlined) squirrels (underlined) is (underlined) still (underlined) uttering (underlined) alarm (underlined) calls!(underlined)
   As we haver ourselves, it looks as if the squirrels are preparing to follow the tamarnis, but I can't be sure of this.

   This moloch (underlined) would appear to be primarely an animal of leusest vegetation. Only incidentally swamps
