The woolly spider monkey, or muriqui, is one of the most threatened primate species in the world. Because of deforestation in their natural habitat, the muriquis are confined to less than 3 percent of their original range. This book is a natural history of the muriqui from its scientific discovery in 1806 to its current, highly endangered status.
