The common hussar is a long-legged monkey that lives in African savannas. It runs quickly on the ground and has reddish fur on its back and a white face.
The common hussar differs from other monkeys by its very long legs and ability to run quickly on open ground. It helps spread plant seeds and serves as food for leopards and other predators.
