We were in a campground on the mountain range when a family of howler monkeys came to feed on a tree of nesperas.

The population of howler monkeys has drastically reduced in this area due to a yellow fever epidemic. Unfortunately, they were also killed for being considered to cause the disease. Sad not to find them over there anymore.
