The Colobus Trust

The Colobus Trust is a conservation organisation designed to promote the conservation, preservation and protection of primates, in particular the rare Angolan Colobus monkey (Colobus angolensis palliatus) and its coastal forest habitat in southern Kenya.

The Trust was established in 1997 in response to an outcry from local residents about the high number of deaths of the Colobus in the Diani area.

Now, eleven years later, the Trust has numerous projects concerning the wildlife and the citizens of Kenya, including animal welfare, biological/ecological research, community development and education, forest protection and enrichment and eco-tourism awareness programs.
