It is hard to guess what a Brumback’s night monkey weights. But we have the answer:
An adult Brumback’s night monkey (Aotus brumbacki) on average weights 603 grams (1.33 lbs).
The Brumback’s night monkey is from the family Cebidae (genus: Aotus). When reaching adult age, they grow up to 83.7 cm (2′ 9″).
