## Resource

Scientists just uncovered a brand-new monkey species in the Democratic Republic of Congo—complete with wild orange lips and a name, colobus congoensis. Only the fifth African monkey found in 75 years, this shy tree-dweller was first spotted in a blurry 2008 photo, later confirmed by researchers and locals who called it Likweli. Genetically unique and part of a long-isolated lineage, it’s now facing imminent threat from habitat loss as villages expand. Conservationists are racing to get it listed as endangered before it’s lost forever—proof that discovery and extinction are racing side by side in our wild world.
