Peruvian mirikina is a small nocturnal primate with very large eyes. It lives in the Andean mountain cloud forests at an altitude of more than a thousand meters.
Peruvian mirikina differs from other night monkeys with its thick fur and life at high altitude in the mountains. It is important for nature because it disperses plant seeds and serves as prey for predators.
