背面描述	The reverse presents a finely detailed effigy of a Howler monkey (Alouatta pigra) perched and moving along a tree branch, depicted in left profile with its mouth open in a characteristic call. The naturalistic design is complemented by foliage and floral elements rendered in low relief around the branch. The upper field carries the legend ENDANGERED WILDLIFE arcing along the rim, while the denomination 10 DOLLARS appears within a rectangular cartouche at the base of the design.

附加信息	Belize issued a series of silver conservation coins through the 1970s–90s in partnership with the WWF and related wildlife programs, with the howler monkey pieces tied directly to efforts to document and protect primate populations in the Cockscomb Basin. The black howler monkey — found almost nowhere outside Belize and a small adjoining region of Guatemala — was already the subject of the world's first jaguar preserve established in 1986, a designation that incidentally protected howler habitat as well. KM#125 is one of the later strikes in this conservation series, by which point mintages had declined sharply from the earlier issues.
