Family of Karol Fears for Its Life and Reports Carlienis

The Diaz family and singer Carlienis are extremely concerned about the care and health of their animal, who is reportedly suffering in the facility where it is being kept. They fear for its life, as a veterinarian sent them a video in which Karol appears frightened in a corner, away from other monkeys. The Diaz family is reporting Carlienis, fearing the animal will die. According to the mother of the urban artist, those who took the monkey have told them there is a law specifying that the animal is not theirs. They fear it will die in this manner. As is known, in November 2025, the Ministry of Environment (MiAmbiente) seized the animal following a complaint, based on it being a protected species whose domestic possession is illegal in Panama. The family is running a public campaign to regain custody of the animal. 'They want to build a legal case against my daughter Carlienis when there is no evidence of mistreatment, no abuse, nor was she bought,' said the mother. They argue that Karol, who was cared for since she was a baby with food and veterinary care, does not know how to survive in the wild and her health is deteriorating due to the stress of the separation.
