Since 1992, José Caldas has been investigating the Mono-carvoeiros which are in danger of extinction. In their main refuge, the Montes Claros farm, in Caratinga, Minas Gerais, he discovered why the Brachyteles arachnoides attract the attention of so many researchers in Brazil and in the rest of the world.
