Mono Aullador, Black Howler Monkey (Alouatta caraya) is a species of howler monkey, a large New World monkey, from Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil and Paraguay. Named for their vocalizations, they may be heard most often around sunrise. This -dawn chorus- sounds much more like roaring that howling, and it announces the howlers' position as a means to avoiding conflict with other groups. The call can be heard up to 5 km away. These monkeys commonly sleep or rest up to 80% of the day, making it one of the least active monkeys in the New World. [source Wikipedia]
