Description
The black and white colobus monkey is native to Africa and is an Old World monkey. The colobus live in high density forests and are arboreal, their tails functioning as parachutes. They live in egalitarian groups, where any and all members function as mothers.
Other, very complex rituals,sleeping patterns and behavoirs have been observed.
Their black and white fur is unique and unfortunately, highly prized by poachers. With new laws and penalties in place their numbers are stabilizing but they remain rare and recluse.
