AbstractThe Caqueta titi monkey (Plecturocebus caquetensis) is Critically Endangered (CR) due to habitat destruction associated with extensive livestock ranching and farming. But unfortunately, information on the ecology and behavior of the species is scarce. Here we describe seasonal behavioral patterns and home range size of P. caquetensis in a 23-ha forest fragment in Colombia. In 2013, we collected focal animal behavioral data of a group of seven individuals of P. caquetensis.
