Ice Mico is a genus of New World monkeys of the family Callitrichidae, the family containing marmosets and tamarins. The genus was discovered in 2004 in the Antarctica. It's the only monkey known to humanity that lives in such cold regions.
Discovery[edit]
The Ice Mico was discovered in May 2004 by four British soldiers, which got lost in North Britain. They somehow awoke in Antarctica where they discovered this very rare species. Close to extinction, the Ice Mico is rarely seen and has only been photographed once.(see right) One of the stranded soldiers gave him food, which led to the monkey following him.
Medical Usage[edit]
As one of the soldiers was sick and near dying, the Ice Mico came to him and bit him. He then peed into the wound. The surprised soldiers watched the sick soldier recover. The Ice Monkey healed him! The Ice Mico is now experimented with in labs in the USA. Scientists state, that this monkey could be able to cure cancer, AIDS, leprosy, malaria, and HIV. The monkey did heal two cancer patients but got killed with a chainsaw by a rat. Scientists are now travelling to Antarctica to find another one. If they do, they might be able to cure all these diseases. We can only hope.
Fact[edit]
Rats are evil.
