Interesting facts of black and white Columbus: Black and white colobuses (or colobi) are old world monkeys of the genus Colobus, native to Africa. They are closely related to the brown Colobus monkeys of genus. The world Colobus comes from Greek. Their habitat includes primary and secondary forest, riverine forest, and wooded grasslands; they are found more in higher density logged forest then in primary forest. Their ruminant-like digestive systems have enabled these leaf-eaters to occupy niches that are inaccessible to other primates. Colobuses live in territorial groups of approximately nine individuals, based upon a single male with a number of females and their off spring.
