Native to the forests of Central Africa, colobus monkeys are uniquely adapted arboreal primates identified by their vestigial thumbs. The name “colobus” is derived from the Greek kokobos, referring to these reduced digits.
Paradoxically this feature enhances their agility, allowing them to navigate treetops better than other primates. Specialized digestive systems allow them to eat poisonous leaves and unripe fruit.
