Black and white Colobus monkeys have long white hair and a long white tail.

Babies are born white and gradually change to their adult colouring as they get older.

The word Colobus is a Greek word meaning mutilated.

This is because, instead of a thumb, the monkeys only have a small stub. This is common amongst forest primates and is believed to allow the monkeys to travel more easily through tree branches.
