Beyond the Beach: The Mysterious Sykes’ Monkey of Zanzibar
When you think of Zanzibar, you think of white sands—but deep in the Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park, a different kind of treasure awaits.
Meet the Sykes’ Monkey (also known as the Samango or White-Throated Monkey).
These aren't just any primates; with their "grizzled" olive-grey coats and striking white collars, they look like they’re dressed for a gala in the middle of the jungle.
Quick Facts for your Safari:
The Look: Olive-grey bodies, sleek black limbs, and that signature white chest.
The Menu: They aren't picky! From sweet forest fruits to crunchy insects.
Where to find them: We spot them in the lush woodlands of Arusha and the secret forests of Zanzibar.
Ready to swap the poolside for a primate trek? Mobila Safaris takes you into the heart of their habitat.
