		This species is also known as the bald Uakari because of the lack of hair on its head, and is known locally as the "English monkey." Its short tail distinguishes it from all other monkeys in South America that have long tails.
		The White Uakari, classified Cacajao calvus, inhabits the Upper Amazonia region in a relatively narrow zone between the Rio Japura and the Rio Ica, where it lives in tropical rainforests that are subject to periodic flooding.
		The primary threat to the White Uakari is the destruction of its rainforest habitat and local hunting.

		Unlike most monkeys, uakaris have very short tails, but move nimbly in the trees without them by using their arms and legs.
		Most food is gathered in the trees, though during dry periods when food is scarce, uakaris will go to the ground in search of fallen seeds or roots.

	Amazon Animals mammals - large monkey natural history
		Small monkeys are in the Cebidae family (see Small monkeys), whereas larger Amazon monkeys previously assigned to this family are now included in three other families, the Atelidae (spider monkeys, woolly monkeys and howler monkeys), Pitheciidae (titis, saki monkeys and uakaris) and Aotidae (owl or night monkeys).
		In particular, the white uakari is limited to a small area of varzea forest in the upper Amazon south of Iquitos, and the yellow-tailed woolly monkey (Lagothrix flavicauda)is found only in montane cloud forests of the Peruvian Andes at elevations of 1700 to 2500 meters.
		The sakis and uakaris have dentition that appears to be specialized to split open unripe fruits whose seeds form the main part of their diet.

	IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: Cacajao calvus
		Although hunted, and subject to local extirpation and never it seems particularly common, the 2001 IUCN Categories and Criteria do not permit the classification of the bald uacari as Vulnerable (the threshold for VU under criterion A was raised from 20% decline to 30% decline).
		Combining the distribution of the four subspecies, the bald uacari can be considered Near Threatened.
		Severely hunted in many parts of Peru and Brazil, especially those parts of the forest which are flooded as this makes the areas more accessible to hunting from canoe.

		Marmosets and tamarins also eat plant nectars and fruits as well as some insects and, at times, small vertebrates such as lizards and frogs.
		The other family of New World monkeys, the Cebidae, is composed of a very diverse group of monkeys including capuchin (or organ grinder) monkeys, howler, spider, woolly and woolly spider monkeys, bald-headed uakari monkeys, squirrel monkeys, night monkeys and callicebus monkeys.
		Many, but not all members of this family have a prehensile (grasping) tail in which the last few inches of the undersurface of the tail is completely devoid of hair and covered with a touch-sensitive pad just like your fingertips.

		It's hard to tell; the reserve hosts 14 species of primates, more than any other reserve in South America -- perhaps in the world.
		Protection for the endangered red uakari, a bald-faced, orange-coated monkey resembling a miniature orangutan, provided much of the impetus for establishing the 800,000-acre reserve here in 1991.
		The Chicago-based Rainforest Conservation Fund (RCF), whose board of directors composes the core of our group of 14, has supported the reserve since its creation.
