Hybrid Spider Monkey

HYBRID SPIDER MONKEY

Habitat- They live in very main rainforests as well as riverines and semi-dicidous areas. They like big, old trees so it cinfines itself onto high tree areas. Its found mainly in Brazil, colombia, ecuador, peru and venezuela.

What would happen to ecosystem if spider monkey dies- large amounts of forest would go wild and grow out of control from monkeys not eating their usual surroundings. They are food also for many predators so they may be at threat of extinction. The hyrbrid spider monkey eats birds eggs and insects so those, populations may florish.

Cause of habitat loss- humans introduced, which brings land derteariation for houses and farms. Hybrid spider monkeys are hunted for thier meat and fur for show and warmth. Humans harvest there crops, the crops are the food for the monkey so they have to move to unknown areas.

How to improve number of species- we could breed them in captivity and then let them into the wild when the species is ready, make wildlife preserves so they are protected from hunters and loss of land, build around their areas instead of through.
