BeauThe Rungwecebus kipunji on Monday was listed as "critically endangered"---the highest possible threat level before extinction---by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in response to the WCS research.
"Without a doubt, they are the rarest monkey in Africa, and I would imagine there are very few with such small numbers in the world," said Tim Davenport, Tanzania country director for the WCS, who led one of the two research teams that separately identified the primate in 2005.
Davenport helped IUCN to assess the conservation status of the kipunji.
Mike Hoffmann, a Washington-based program manager for IUCN, said his organization relies on information from researchers in the field about animal populations to determine a species' conservation status.
"They've got very good information," Hoffman said of Davenport's teams. "This is information from people working on the ground conducting detailed surveys."
The smallest kind of monkey in the world is the Pygmy Marmoset, which is native to the rainforests of South America, specifically Brazil, Bolivia, Columbia, Ecuador and Peru. They can also be seen in many zoos, including San Diego, Philadelphia, Smithsonian National, and Bronx. Presumably they can also be found in non-American zoos as well.
