The crested long-tailed monkey Cercopithecus pogonias likes to live in the forest and live in trees for a long time. It is rare to see a crested long-tailed monkey walking on the ground, except for those raised in zoos. The crested long-tailed monkeys seen in China are basically introduced and distributed in various zoos for people to watch.
Although the population of crested long-tailed monkeys is large in Africa, the reduction of their habitat and human influence have led to a downward trend in the population. This is mainly due to the large-scale deforestation and urban construction in Africa for economic development. Another secondary reason is that crested long-tailed monkeys are also one of the local meat sources.
Listed in the IUCN Red List of Primates in 2008 - Low Concern (LC).
Protect wild animals and stop eating game.
