Classified as Critically Endangered (CR A2cd) on the 2010 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species
This species is endemic to Brazil’s Atlantic Forest region. They live in multi-male groups that can reach more than 50 animals. They have suffered from hunting and the destruction of their forests since the 16th century. Today the population is less than 1,000 individuals and is highly fragmented, with no subpopulation believed to be viable in the long term. The name muriqui comes from the Tupi Indians of Brazil, but they have also previously been called woolly spider monkeys. .

In 1983, Andy Warhol created a series of ten color screenprints that portrayed endangered animals from around the world: Siberian tiger, San Francisco silverspot, orangutan, Grevy's zebra, black rhinoceros, bighorn ram, African elephant, pine barrens tree frog, giant panda and bald eagle. Using brilliant colors -- characteristic of his signature style -- and poignant expressions suggestive of the animal's fate, Warhol creates a dynamic tension between art and reality.
