An ahool is a startling creature, resembling a chimpanzee with a pair of bat-like wings. These strange primates, with a 10-foot wingspan, are named for their distinctive call, which echoes through the nights of the jungle. Encounters with these nocturnal creatures are rare and rarely end without injury of either party. Nocturnal Howler. Male ahools are solitary, leaving the social females to raise the offspring in troops. It is rare to see the offspring with a hunting party, and this only happens with a very small troop. When both sexes do come meet up, males viciously rip each other to pieces in airborne battles, high above the forest floor. |
