This baby Howler Monkey was taken from its mother at three days old, with the umbilical cord still attached. Wildlife authorities called RAREC and we helped confiscate many different species, including the Howler Monkey baby.
Unfortunately the sex is still unknown, although we have our guesses 😉 As of now the baby enjoys their daily walks to forage and climb in nearby trees. Our team is feeding around the clock and slowly increasing its milk intake! Every day they are weighed to track the progress and rehabilitation. We hope to send this baby to a pre-release facility when it is old enough to gain social skills needed to be in a troop!
