Support The Canadian Encyclopedia. Agriculture and Food. Canada's agriculture and food industries have changed greatly in the years since the Second World War. Growth in Canadaâs economy, and associated social changes, have altered the way food is produced, processed, handled, sold and consumed.
How much is it? The cost of a Capybara can range from $400 to $1,100 per animal. The cost will depend on the breeder, the quality, age and geographical location. Purchasing one from a foreign country, such as South America, could increase the price tag to as high as $3,000 to more than $8,000.
Capuchin monkeysâthe kind you see with organ grindersâare more expensive than most monkeys on account of their remarkable intelligence. But most dealers will sell you a baby capuchin for between $5,000 and $7,000. If the police department in Mesa bought a monkey that had been trained extensively by its breeder, the price might be somewhat higher.
