The zoo said it was excited to introduce visitors to the "lush, mountainous forests of central Africa", which had taken seven years to reproduce. Chief operating officer Kathryn England said: "New life has been breathed into the former Snowdon Aviary, a remarkable piece of the nation's architectural history.
"Colobus monkeys are nicknamed the 'high-flying monkeys', because of their impressive leaps - as they drop from branch to branch, with their arms outstretched, it's believed they use the long hair on their body and tails as makeshift parachutes. "It's truly a sight to behold, and we can't wait to share this and more about these incredible primates with our visitors."
