Amazon is on fire again... So is Pantanal...

            Do you care? 

This is Parauacu or Amazonian Saki Monkey - Saki monkeys are a secretive group of primates native to the tropical forests of South America. They are often hunted for food, even though their elusive behavior makes them difficult to find. This is a species endemic to the Brazilian Amazon Forest and it is endangered due to the loss of it's habitat and hunting.

“Saki monkeys, like many rain forest primates, are excellent indicators for the health of tropical forest systems.”  Dr. Russell A. Mittermeier, President of Conservation International and Chair of the IUCN SSC Primate Specialist Group.

This is a wild saki monkey photographed at  Juma Lodge 3 years ago. Does he have a chance?

Enjoy your weekend.

Thanks a lot for your visits, comments, faves, invites, etc. Very much appreciated!
