De Brazza's Guenon
Cercopithecus neglectus
The adult De Brazza's guenon inhabits Central African swamp forest, riparian woodland, and dense vegetation near water. It is a shy, agile monkey that forages in trees and on the ground, often moving quietly through cover. Its diet includes fruits, seeds, leaves, flowers, fungi, and small invertebrates. The species is famous for its cryptic behavior, freezing motionless with its orange brow and white beard breaking up its outline in shadowed forest.
