Hamlyn's owl-faced monkey; one of my favourite species of monkey, sadly one seldom seen these days.

      A damn nice shot, Tim; not a species I expect will be hanging around much longer sadly.

      Thank you very much :)

      Yes, unfortunately, I agree with you; a very great shame.

      Yet twenty years ago there were five UK collections keeping them, and they were breeding in at least three of them( plus one baby at a fourth). Somehow we just didn't manage to keep them going longerterm though.

      As little as 10 years ago we still had three breeding groups in the UK, with a fourth collection having just gone out of the species......

      The picture shows female KLARA (born at Leipzig Zoo in 1999), the younger female at Berlin Zoo.
