A new face - Dusky titi monkey

The monkeys of the Tambopata Research Centre are amongst the least concerned by human presence of any along the Tambopata River. This mother was resting in the bamboo while her young infant played among the branches. After a while we could hear the crashing sounds of an approaching troop of Capuchin monkeys. She gathered up her baby onto her back and and after one last loook at the approaching danger made her way into some impenetrable thickets.
