Jozani Forest is best known for its red colobus monkeys, which are endemic to Zanzibar. The monkeys were considered to be in danger of extinction.
The forest is best known for its kirks red colobus monkeys (kima punju in swahili), which are en- demic to Zanzibar. About 10 years ago, the monkeys were considered to be in danger of extinc- tion, but this trend has since reversed due to the conservation project. There are about 6000 red colobus monkey residing in Jozani Forest.
After visiting the monkeys, you will walk across to the Pete-Jozani Mangrove Boardwalk, which entwines through coral thicket vegetation, mangrove forest and across a creek.
