The yellow-tailed woolly monkey is just one of the world's rarest mammals and are almost extinct. They normally reach adulthood at 4 years and typically live between 10 to 16 years.
Woolly monkeys exhibit sexual dimorphism by body mass and males are heavier than females (Ford & Davis 1992). As their name implies, the fur is very thick and woolly. Males and females have the same coloration (Napier & Napier 1967). Generally, woolly monkeys are pale gray or brown overall to black (Fooden 1963).
