Snub Nose Monkey
Snub Nose Monkey
Safari Ltd - Snub nosed monkeys are known for their striking golden fur, their pale blue faces, and their unique, extremely short noses. The reason for their distinctive nose is unknown, though some scientists believe it may help reduce the risk of frostbite in their extremely cold habitats.
Scientific Name: Rhinopithecus roxellana
