Information about the Bald Uakari:

The Bald Uakari - also called the Bald-Headed Uakari - is monkey native to the seasonally flooded forests and other wooded habitats near water in the western Amazon of Brazil and Peru. The Bald Uakari weighs about 6.1-7.6 pounds (2.75-3.45 kg) with a body length of 18 inches long (45.6 cm.) Females are slightly smaller. It is rarely found outside of the forest canopy. It is omnivorous, feeding mostly on fruits found in the trees, but it will also eat flowers, buds and small animals. Because the monkey has such a small range, it is extremely susceptible to human activity such as habitat loss. Several conservative groups are working to help preserve enough natural habitat to save the Bald Uakari from extinction.
