Many arboreal primates descend to the ground, a custom that may occur more frequently in disturbed habitats, and in the presence of researchers to whom the primates are habituated. In this paper, we describe opportunistic observations of ground use i... Read More about Ground use by northern muriquis (Brachyteles hypoxanthus).
