One of the rarest animals in the Amazon is the red uakari. This unique primate has a bright red face with a bald head and long fur covering the rest of its body. Although it lacks a long tail like other primates, the uakari uses its long arms and legs to live an arboreal life in the trees. These animals can only be found in the Amazon river basin, preferring heavily flooded areas near water sources.
