The famous Galtaji (Monkey) Temple in Jaipur, India is home to two breeds of monkeys; the red faced rhesus macaque (shown here over looking the large pool) and the black faced langur monkeys. Though they appear t be tame and docile, they are not. We were repeatedly told by our guide to not make eye contact with any of them, at risk of getting attacked.
The Galtaji Monkey Temple near Jaipur, in Rajasthan, India is a popular tourist and Hindu pilgrim destination. The site, which dates back to the 1500's, consists of a series of Hindu temples built into a narrow crevice in the hills that surround Jaipur. Water from a natural spring flows into a series of sacred pools (kunds) in which pilgrims bathe and youths play.

A wild Green Monkey in Barbados was sat nicely for a photo. I wonder what he was thinking about? Maybe bananas.
Orangutans are the most arboreal of the great apes and spend most of their time in trees. Their hair is typically reddish-brown, instead of the brown or black hair typical of chimpanzees and gorillas.
This adorable monkey with clear, beautiful eyes was our companion at the camp where we were staying in South Africa. He was quite crafty in quickly grabbing food off the tables at breakfast and lunch!

Screech says – ugh!!! ...another Monday and it’s snowing again. It’s hard on us guys ...the snow frizzes my hair!
PS: Screech once posed on National Geographic - the reason he is so concerned about his hair.
This is a family of Rhesus Macaque monkeys living at the famous Monkey temple (Swayambhunath ), Kathmandu ,Nepal. The numerous monkeys seemed to scrounge a living from the many tourists that visited this ,once marvellous , site. This hill-top temple was an essential place to visit ,when in Kathmandu . I was enchanted by its beauty & glorious spirituality when I was first there in 1996 ,returning twice to this magical place , since then. But most unfortunately the massive earthquake in April ,this year, caused very severe damage to this ancient site. . The pictures I saw of the awful devastation were absolutely heartbreaking .

This is one of the pesky monkeys that seemed to follow us everywhere we went in rural Sri Lanka.
I highly recommend Sri lanka as a travel destination if you love good food and great people.

Sock monkey, for, just like the lead in a Clint Eastwood spaghetti western, he has no name, hung from the window frame and stared at the drizzle gently falling on yet another dismal, damp Sunday (at the tail end of July fer chrissakes!) and resigned himself to the fact that English summer was, indeed, truly cr@p!
Well at least he had some bokeh for company...
Đây là loài khỉ nhỏ với đuôi dài và rậm rạp. Khỉ Saki là động vật ăn tạp. Chúng ăn trái cây, lá, hoa, côn trùng và vật có xương sống nhỏ như là động vật gặm nhấm và loài dơi.
Khuôn mặt khác với màu da khiến khỉ Saki trông rất nổi bật giữa rừng rậm.

Eind september 2009 zijn er drie brillangoeren in het Aziatische deel, de Rimba, van Burgers Zoo in Arnhem gearriveerd. Een schenking van een Israëlische dierentuin. Er zijn welgeteld drie zoo's in Europa die deze soort hebben. Een niet alledaagse aap dus.
Om de brillangoer (Trachypithecus obscurus) uit Bangladesh, India, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Thailand goed te kunnen beschrijven, zonder een foto te laten zien, moet je van goede huize komen. Daarom hierna een beschrijving uit "ZieZoo", een tweemaandelijkse uitgave van Burgers Zoo voor relaties en jaarkaarthouders.
Het zijn slanke apen met nogal een variabele kleur. Het varieert van elk soort bruin tot grijs en zwart. Hun poten en staart zijn dan weer lichter van kleur. Maar wat natuurlijk het meest opvalt is hun brilletje. Ze hebben namelijk een witte ring rond hun ogen. Daarnaast zijn hun lippen wit en/of vleeskleurig. Een opvallende verschijning dus. Zeker gezien het feit dat hun hoofdhaar eruit ziet alsof ze net uit bed zijn gekomen.
De kop-romp-lengte is 42 tot 61 centimeter en de staartlengte is 50 tot 85 cm.
De maag van de brillangoer bestaat , net als bij koeien, uit meerdere afdelingen als aanpassing aan het eten van moeilijk verteerbaar plantaardig materiaal.

We saw lots of monkeys on our hike up/down Emei Shan mountain in Sichuan, China. Some were very agressive & mean. Others were troublemakers and would be doing things like pulling off the drying laundry at some of the monasteries. I have so many shots of monkeys from this hike, but I only have time to share one. So here's a cute little juvenile adjusting his position in the tree.
