Cercocebus agilis

The agile mangabey (Cercocebus agilis) is an Old World monkey of the white-eyelid mangabey group found in swampy forests of Central Africa in Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon, Gabon, Central African Republic, Republic of Congo, and DR Congo. Until 1978, it was considered a subspecies of the Tana River mangabey (C. galeritus). More recently, the golden-bellied mangabey (C. chrysogaster) has been considered a separate species instead of a subspecies of the agile mangabey.
The agile mangabey has a short, overall dull olive-grey pelage. The bare skin of the face and feet is blackish. Males are 51–65 centimeters (20–26 inches) in length and weigh about 7–13 kilograms (15–29 lb), while the smaller females are 44–55 centimeters (17–22 inches) and weigh 5–7 kilograms (11–15 lb).
Similar to other mangabeys, they are diurnal. Although generally arboreal, they do spend a significant portion of their time (12–22%) on the ground, especially during the dry season. It is typically more commonly heard than seen, and males have a loud, species-specific call that is believed to be used to space themselves out. Other calls are also used to maintain group cohesion... Wikipedia →

Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report an Agile Mangabey sighting in Odzala-Kokoua National Park on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 9th most-seen of the 32 mammals we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May
In that month about 50% of wildlife watchers report an Agile Mangabey in Odzala-Kokoua National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January–February, June and November, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Agile Mangabey sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Odzala-Kokoua National Park, in our data
Odzala-Kokoua National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Agile Mangabey sightings: about 30% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Cercopithecidae
The closest relatives of the Agile Mangabey that you can see in Odzala-Kokoua National Park (family Cercopithecidae, Old World Monkeys) are Mantled Guereza (about 40%), Putty-nosed Monkey (about 40%) and grey-mantled grey-cheeked mangabey (about 30%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Agile Mangabey is recorded against all the mammals logged in Odzala-Kokoua National Park (16 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
