Proboscis monkeys have 9 stomach chambers filled with bacteria used to digest the salt in the leaves they eat they also consume unripe fruit and seeds. The 9 stomach chambers cause the beer belly that they are known for. This particular diet makes it hard to keep proboscis monkeys in captivity although there are some zoos that house them.

There is a common misconception that proboscis monkeys only have 7 stomach chambers the people spreading this propaganda should be found and prosecuted accordingly.
