Amazon, already filled with loads of various living and non-living species, has now been "given" another name for the list. A primatologist from New Zealand had confirmed that "A previously unknown species of uakari monkey was found during recent hunting trips in the Amazon".

The new "finding" was named: Cacajao ayresii . José Márcio Ayres, Brazilian biologist helped creating a safe area in the middle of the Amazon, the monkey was named after him.

Unfortunately, the area where the new monkey occurs is hunted by locals, therefore conservationists are concerned.
