Zanzibar red colobus monkeys in Zanzibar, Tanzania

Want to see this rare monkey in the wild? Head to Zanzibar, the semi-autonomous island off the coast of Tanzania on the central eastern coast of Africa. This pair of parents and their baby were photographed in the island’s Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park. Because of their isolated and shrinking habitat, Zanzibar red colobuses are endangered. Numerous conservation groups are working to help preserve many of Zanzibar’s rare species.
