Born Free Foundation - Keep Wildlife in the Wild

The appealing black-faced vervet is a medium-sized old world monkey, widespread throughout Africa.  Vervets frequently come into conflict with humans and are adept at raiding crops.  Although not considered to be of high conservation concern, vervets are extensively exploited for bushmeat¹ and the exotic pet-trade.  Born Free is working in Malawi and Zambia to rescue vervets from captive exploitation and return them to the wild.
