--- The illegal trafficking, indiscriminate hunting and deforestation have led to the common woolly monkey (Lagothrix lagotricha) is designated as an endangered species that is vulnerable, for this reason is needed rescue and rehabilitation centers, where they are rehabilitated and finally released back into the wild. There have been studies on captive populations, it is important to verify the health status of this species with free or semi-captive populations and health parameters to establish bases in this species The objective of this study was to determinate the hematology values and serum biochemistry values in a population of woolly monkeys in semi- captivity (rescue and rehabilitation center Ikamaperu) in Lagunas, Loreto; which meet permit release of the protocol, in the case of reintroductions in the wild .A total of 40 primates 12 males y 28 females, among juveniles, sub adults and adults, in apparent good conditions were studied. The primates were anesthetized with a ketamine (10 mg/kg) i.m., although some animals needed Diazepam (10 mg /kg) oral. The hematology average values were: count of erythrocytes = 5.71 x 10^6/µl, hemoglobin = 12.67 g/dl, hematocrit = 40.93%, VCM = 73.15 fl, HCM = 22.76 pg, CHCM = 31.19 g/dl, platelet = 343.08 x 10³/µl, count of leucocytes = 8.33 x 10³/µl, neutrophils = 4.42 x 10³/µl, eosinophils = 0.5 x 10³/µl, basophils = 0.08 x 10³/µl, lymphocytes = 3.31 x 10³/µl and monocytes = 0.02 x 10³/µl. The serum biochemistry average values were: urea = 26.97 mg/dl, creatinina = 1.12 mg/dl, total protein = 5.93 g/dl, albumin= 4.05g/dl, ALT= 36.43 UI/L, AST = 108.26 UI/L, total bilirubin = 0.53 mg/dl, direct bilirubin = 0.27 mg/dl, cholesterol = 131.1 mg/dl, triglyceride = 133.21 mg/dl, and glucose 91.45 mg/dl. Significant difference was found in monocytes count in relation to sex; the count of erythrocytes, total protein, total bilirubin, cholesterol and ALP was different between age group. The hematology values were similar to those reported in the literature, differences was found in levels of AST, ALP, total protein and triglyceride compared with other studies. Key words: woolly monkey, Lagothrix lagotricha, hematology, serum biochemistry, semi - captivity
