Monkey of the species Bugiu in nurseries in the Center of Management and Conservation of Wild Animals. The animals are treated by veterinarians and after a few months are returned to their natural habitat on March 28, 2018 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The mosquito-borne disease lives on top of the trees in the forests around the big cities, even habitat of the Bugiu monkey. The lack of information of the population caused that many cases of aggression and murder of the monkeys happened in the neighborhoods near the regions of forest. The Bugiu monkey has similar characteristics to humans because they both die within a period of about a week after contracting the virus. Experts believe that the population of this species of monkey was practically exterminated in the city of Sao Paulo because of the disease. (Photo by Victor Moriyama/Getty Images)
