Western Red Colobus

Abuko, The Gambia

This is a leaf-eating species which consumes large amounts of nutrient-poor leaves each day -perhaps this diet explains the rather melancholic demeanour!

1/400s f/5.6 at 700.0mm iso400 full exif

Almost a human look... Very beautiful shot with great details and nice colours. I love the sight! What a great picture! Big vote!

Rather like the koala, which lives only on eucalyptus leaves; it has to spend most of it's time sleeping because it has no energy! An excellent portrait, with great details. Well done.
