All sorts of #toxic materials are released into the #atmosphere when buildings and their contents #burn. It's why one sees urban #firefighters donning breathing apparatus. #Wildlands adjacent to the Los Angeles basin also contain #mercury and #lead in #soil and litter layers, deposited over many years from #air #pollution generated by vehicles and industries. #Wildfires often emit these heavy metals.

More info on the Saki:
A saki monkey is a type of New World monkey found in the rainforests of South America. These monkeys belong to the genus Pithecia and are known for their distinctive appearance. Here are some key features of saki monkeys:
Appearance:
Saki monkeys have thick, long fur that varies in color depending on the species.
Their faces often have a unique pattern, with dark fur around the eyes and lighter fur on the rest of the face.
Some species have a tuft of hair on top of their heads, resembling a “punk” hairstyle.

Habitat:
They inhabit tropical rainforests, including regions in Brazil, Peru, and other parts of South America.
Saki monkeys are primarily arboreal, spending most of their time in trees.

Behavior:
They are diurnal (active during the day) and are skilled climbers.
Saki monkeys feed on fruits, seeds, insects, and leaves.
They live in small family groups and communicate through vocalizations.

Species Diversity:
There are several species of saki monkeys, each with its own unique characteristics.
Examples include the black-faced black spider monkey (Pithecia pithecia) and the golden-faced saki (Pithecia chrysocephala).

In summary, saki monkeys are fascinating primates with striking appearances, adapted to life in the lush rainforests of South America.
