@dailymail: Scientists have confirmed a striking black monkey with vivid orange lips as a previously unknown species after years of searching in the forests of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The elusive primate, known locally as the Likweli, is only the fifth new African monkey species identified in the past 75 years and was verified through genetic, behavioral, and physical analysis. Researchers now warn the newly identified species may already be endangered due to its tiny habitat and limited population. #science #monkey #congo #rainforest #animals
