Maryland Zoo Welcomes 2 Red-Tailed Guenon To Chimpanzee Forest

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- The Maryland Zoo is welcoming some new additions to its chimpanzee forest.

Naim and Gus, the Red-tailed guenons, both arrived at the Maryland Zoo last month; one from a zoo in Tampa, the other from Atlanta.

The pair was sent to Baltimore as part of the guenon species survival plan.

These monkeys usually live in forests and swamplands throughout central Africa.

After an introduction period, the duo will share their habitat with the Colobus monkeys.
