Howler Monkeys Reintroduced to the Balam Na Project
Two howler monkeys that were being readied
for the Fireburn Reserve
Howler monkeys are being reintroduced to NE Belize after a 60+ year absence in the Shipstern / Fireburn forest region. Four monkeys were released into the Fireburn Reserve this spring, with additional ones to be populated to the Balam Na Reserve. With the help of volunteers, the monkeys are now being monitored in their new habitat ahead of future introductions.
