After years of studying different species of saki monkeys, Dr. Marsh discovered in 2014 that one of them (Pithecia vanzolinii) had not been recorded alive by science in the upper Juruá watersheds where it was originally collected in the 1930s. As a result, she planned a several-months-long journey (January - May 2017) into this poorly explored corner of the Amazon rainforest to look for this missing monkey!
Keep following Dr. Marsh for all of the continuing science from this amazing project!
