Geoffroy’s spider monkey (Ateles geoffroyi), one of the most agile and intelligent primates in the Americas, is a vital seed disperser and a symbol of tropical forest health. With their incredibly long limbs and prehensile tails, these monkeys are perfectly adapted for life in the treetops—but they face serious threats from habitat destruction.
1️⃣ Deforestation (logging, agriculture, urban expansion).
2️⃣ Hunting (for meat and illegal pet trade).
3️⃣ Climate Change (alters fruit availability).
4️⃣ Roads & Power Lines (cause fatal accidents when monkeys cross).
✅ Support reforestation efforts in Central America.
✅ Avoid wildlife tourism that exploits monkeys.
✅ Donate to conservation groups like Paso Pacifico or Rainforest Trust.
✅ Spread awareness—share this post!
Geoffroy’s spider monkey is more than just an acrobat of the trees—it’s a keystone species that keeps rainforests healthy. With Endangered status and populations plummeting, urgent action is needed to protect its habitat and stop illegal hunting.

The Mantled Howler Monkey (Alouatta palliata) is one of the most iconic primates of Central and South America, known for its deafening roars that echo through tropical forests. These social, leaf-eating monkeys play a crucial role in their ecosystem—but they face growing threats.
While still widespread, declines are linked to:
Found from southern Mexico to northern Peru, including:
1️⃣ Deforestation (logging, agriculture, urbanization)
2️⃣ Hunting (for bushmeat or pet trade—despite legal protections)
3️⃣ Climate Change (droughts reduce food availability)
4️⃣ Road Mortality (hit by vehicles when crossing fragmented forests)
Mantled Howler Monkeys are more than just loud neighbors—they’re gardeners of the jungle, shaping the forests they call home. While still widespread, their survival depends on protecting their habitat and reducing human conflicts.

Near La Fortuna Arenal Volcano National Park you will find an option to learn from this outstanding animal in our sloth tour.
Our Sloth Tour is run by Proyecto Asis. After more than 20 years caring for wild animals and the opportunity of releasing back to nature many species (including sloths) we are now offering you an educational tour to learn from them in this sloth sanctuary.
The sanctuary purpose is to rescue and rehabilitate sloths that have been brought to our place as they needed immediate attention. The tour we offer will help you understand them better and you will get to know what implies to care for them in order to release them or to keep them alive if the first purpose is not an option for them anymore.
We are dedicated to take care of the two species of sloths in Costa Rica.
The design of our sloth sanctuary allows guests to see the them in a safe environment that does not interfere with the animals, so that we keep the rehabilitation process as it must be.
Come join us in this educational tour where you will learn from their history to their liberation process and observe their natural behavior.

“Witnessing the incredible work at @proyectoasis in Costa Rica! My friend @lyberiana leads their wildlife sanctuary, rehabilitating animals like the ones in these photos. Tragically, many are victims of poaching or accidents, luckily in Proyecto Asis they help them recover and go back to the wild when possible.”

Kinkajous are nocturnal animals that spend most of their time alone, but can be social in some ways. They are known for their high-pitched sounds, which include squeaks, hisses, barks, and screams.
Bird mites are tiny, blood-sucking parasites that irritate and weaken birds. We want to show you what it looks like.
We gave it a medical checkup, and it had many tiny mites on its feathers.
