🐒Golden lion tamarin
Kultaleijona-apina eli kultaleijonatamariinilähde? eli kultatamariini (Leontopithecus rosalia) on Brasilian rannikkosademetsissä elävä Amerikan mantereen apinalaji. Laji on uhanalainen, sillä niitä elää luonnossa yli tuhat yksilöä ja vankeudessa viisisataa. Määrä kuitenkin on kasvanut tehokkaan suojeluhankkeen ansiosta, sillä vuonna 1980 kultaleijona-apinoita arveltiin olevan jäljellä vain noin sata yksilöä. Laji oli ennen suojelua suosittu lemmikkieläin. Nisäkäsnimistötoimikunta on ehdottanut, että lajin suomenkieliseksi nimeksi vaihdettaisiin kultatamariini,, jota myös Suomen Lajitietokeskus suosittelee käytettäväksi.
