Uakaris: The Crimson-Faced Enigma of the Amazon
Tumblr media
Envision swinging through the lush canopy of the Amazon rainforest, sunlight filtering the undergrowth where vivacious crimson faces peek from beneath an unkempt fur curtain. These are not ghosts or forest spirits, but uakaris. With shrunk tails and a symphony of barks, moans and howls, they rule supreme as the punk rockers of the rainforest, daring projections with their unparalleled lives. Let’s dive into the world of uakari! Read the full article

Bald uakari (Cacajao calvus)
Like… what do I even need to say here? Apparently the bright red face indicates health to potential mates, making the monkeys think it’s hot I guess. They eat fruit and seeds, and are found in seasonally flooded forests of Peru.

Look at all them simians
So - um - guess who got into that one LEGO show! Anyhoo- It inspired me to bring back pretty much all of my primate OCs from like - 2-3 years ago. Plus, being inspired by this person’s art - I decided to create two more OCs based on my research(?) on other c.primates that were mentioned in the book.
I forgot her name - heck - I’m not even sure if I named her anymore, but before C.Primate No.3, the mangabey has always had a special place in my forever expanding heart lol
Tumblr media
Alt design for my boi - because yes.
Tumblr media
The first - if not only doodles of some of the OCs.
Tumblr media
Not counting Zahara though, considering a drew her pretty often - just as a human like - 98% of the time-

Thoughts on uakari? I love how weird they look - like something from a dark fantasy movie :3
My thoughts are:
I LOVE THEM
youtube
They are so unique visually; They also have unique dentition that allows them to eat unripe fruits other Latin American monkeys can't eat!
Tumblr media
Via Science Direct
90% of their diet consists of fruits and flowers. Their groups can consist of a pair up to hundreds of individuals; Larger groups are seen when food is more abundant. Groups are typically evenly divided male/female. Little is known about uakari as they have been studied very little in the wild. Captive troops are hierarchal but wild troops seem to be less strictly tiered. They wag their tail quite frequently and it is believed a lifted tail communicates excitement while a lowered tail communicates apprehension.
Cacajao calvus are the bald uakari, but
Tumblr media
C. melanocephalus has plenty of hair
Little is known about their wild populations and their conservation status is not decided currently. Right now, they are listed as least concern but some believe the numbers are not accurate. They are targets of poachers for their skulls and body parts to sell to tourists, they are also captured for the pet trade. Threats to their habitat are of concern as well, like many tropical species.
