We just learned about the Azara's Night Monkey.
Another type of new world monkey is the Bald Uakari.
This type of monkey has a bright red face and a bald head.
It lives in South America, spending most of its life in the trees.
Bald Uakari monkeys grow to be about 7 pounds and 18 inches long, and eat mostly fruits, nuts and bugs.
Even though their red face and bald head look weird, a healthy red face means that this type of monkey is healthy!
