The loud vocalizations enable howler monkeys to keep 'in touch' with others in their troop and ward off potential adversaries in the dense forest that reduces visibility. The throat pouches serve to amplify vocalizations.

The prehensile tail allows them flexibility in a primarily high canopied forest. They are able to feed more easily by anchoring themselves with their tails.
