The only primates in that area that are indigenous are the chacma baboon and vervet monkey. A little misleading.

Oh! so yes, it's definitely a Howler monkey!

This was in a monkey park, so they're not all necessarily native to South Africa... Thanks again! :)

It looks like a Black howler monkey, but they are native to South America, so I must be wrong.
