Coppery titis typically inhabit lowland tropical and sub-tropical forests in areas that flood seasonally.

Eating time is generally during the early morning and afternoon, while addition feeding on leaves happens before sleeping.

Family groups will often and habitually eat from the same food source together, meaning there could be a social aspect to meal times.

[5] The behavior of the coppery titis is characterized by a diurnal and entirely arboreal nature, spending all of their day in trees.

The titis will also smell their own scent by rubbing their chests on branches, spreading secretions from their sternal gland before sniffing them.

Other cues include barred teeth, a lowered head, closed eyes, protruding lips or an arched back.

[5][6] There have been observations of the coppery titi monkeys using the Psychotria leaf to self-medicate through fur rubbing.

This behavior can be interpreted as self-medication since the plant is known for being used as a medical herb in traditional medicine, as well as having anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties.

The monkeys move around the predator sporadically, continuing this alarm call, lashing their tails, and swaying their heads.

Their most frequent vocalizations are bellows, pumping, and panting, which are the main components of male-female pair duets.

[5] Their vocalizations can be heard up to one kilometer,[4] and come in different frequencies and pitches, making it so that if studied, or with careful listening, you can identify them individually.

A way to advance before getting involved in sexual intercourse, a male will smell the female's genitals.

Coppery titis scatter the seeds of fruits within their habitats, promoting continued growth.

[3] Threats from human predation are low, as they do not compose the diets of local hunters, unlike larger neotropical primates.

[11] Due to their location in a remote, isolated region however, the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List of Threatened Species (IUCN) puts the coppery titi in the Least Concern (LC) category of endangerment.
