Interested in how I got to volunteer with Woolly Monkeys and lots of other amazing animals In Ecuador? Just send me a message on Instagram (@matthias.pav) or Facebook (Matthias Páv). I'll do my best to answer your specific questions about wildlife volunteering and share tips on visiting this sanctuary.
Knowing I've inspired action truly makes my day!
Woolly monkeys are hunted by a variety of species of eagles and cats, such as the jaguar.
Their main predators, however, are humans, who hunt the species both for food and for the illegal pet trade.
Habitat encroachment is also threatening the survival of the species; all these factors are believed to be the cause of the species' recent decline. Woolly monkeys are now considered highly endangered.
These Woolly Monkeys were brought in by the public and police of Ecuador, often because the owners can not take care of them anymore when they grow older and substantially larger and stronger..
