One morning in 2024, Armando Gulindwin found an orange-beard monkey on the roof of his farmhouse on the edge of Amazon, Brazil.
Never seen before that he had taken out one of the striking creatures from the forest.
The monkey, a groves’ titi, listed as “severely endangered” by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), erupted a small patch on a hill on a hill on a hill on a hill.
Forest harvesting was eating in its limited domain, and the monkey was trying to find a escape way for his family.
The encounter inspired Schlindwein to launch a redistributed drive for monkeys to open a corridor, which to swing the tree-beam back to the rain.
“This small creature is endangered. We need to do something to preserve it,” said 62 -year -old small -scale farmer Shalindwin in the Sinop municipality located within the state of Brazil.
With the help of NGOs such as NGOs, such as the movement of people affected by Ecottono Institute and Dams (Mar), Shalindwin and their neighbors last year planted the seeds of 47 native tree species on a forest harvesting (2.5 acres) of their land.
Within five to seven years, they hope that the new growth would have tripled the space available for this particular monkey family, which would be made of four adults and one baby.
“It is a daily task to save them,” Shalindwin said allegations of his stubborn allegations.
‘nowhere to go’
Locally known as Jogge-Jogog and as Placturosebus grovesi by scientists, the tie of house cat-shaped trees is found only in the Mato Groso state, and only a few thousand of them are left.
It was listed as one of the 25 most endangered primates in the world in the 2022/3 “Primates in Peril” report of IUCN and other environmental groups.
A 2019 study quoted in the report stated that Jogog-Jogog lost 42 percent of his forest house, a figure that could reach 86 percent in a fourth century if nothing is done to prevent its destruction.
Gustavo Rodrigues Canley, a primatologist at the Federal University of Mato Groso, said, “When a child is born and needs to migrate to continue the breeding cycle, they do not go anywhere,” Gustavologist Gustavologist Gustavologist of Federal University of Mato Groso explained AFP.
“Human action leaves them stuck in pieces of small forest,” he said.
The family of monkeys of Schlindwein has been closed to a patch of a polo area, in one area with the unknown title “cut off forests” to be the highest rate of Amazon forest destruction.
Farmers who clean the land for soybean and other crops are mainly convicted for the fate of the forest.
The “Primates in Peril” report suggested that forest loss can be reduced by the construction of reserves “and replacement of more durable models of land use, such as agroporest and agricultural crops, replacement of large areas of chemical-dependent monoculture of commodity crops by production.”
‘Monkeys cannot cross’
Forest harvesting is not only a threat to the monkey family of Gulindwin.
Local people say that one side of the sector of animals has been cut off from a nearby hydroelectric plant run by the French energy veteran EDF -owned company.
“Here, there used to be a stream with trees, but Sinop Hydroelectric Plant (UHE) … created a large lagoon, which the monkeys cannot cross,” Anthony Luise, called Anthony Luiz, a March spokesperson, about 300 meters (984 ft) of a body next to a body of water.
Environmentalists also accused the company of leaving trees for rotting in the river, killing the fish.
In dry weather, rotting wood is exposed, feeding wildfire that hurts and displaces monkeys and other animals.
Sinop Energia, which operates Sinop Uhe, reported that the AFP plant meets “all legal and environmental requirements”.
It stated that it also launched a monitoring program for threatened primets as “water quality, aquatic and terrestrial organisms in the region, aquatic and terrestrial organisms and vegetation uplifts” and as required by the law.
