"Attention to all monkey comrades! New intel has arrived to the Head Office:
Apparently, flea-picking is best done in the Train Formation. We encourage all monkey comrades to utilize this new formation and double-check the efficiency of the new flea-picking method.
End of message.
Long live Comrade Kong!"

REGION-South America Squirrel monkeys may be found in groups of up to 300 individuals, depending on the habitat
"Spectacled Langur" monkeys seen on multiple days at a wild preserve close to small city of Prachuap Khiri Khan, Thailand. There are no fences and they're not in a zoo so these are basically wild monkeys, however they're living at a protected area of a forested mountain and the base at its bottom where they receive daily handouts, supplementing their leaf diet. Besides the name Spectacled Langur, they are also known as the "Dusky Leaf-eating Monkey", as they are a monkey that does eat vegetation. They are free to roam and I chanced upon some up in a tree about half kilometer across a field area, where they were eating the red flowers on this tree. They seem to come out of the forest daily to the feeding area and there are a few stations set up for that, plus a large bowl filled with water for drink. Perhaps that may not be good for wild monkeys but it does help organize it and the locals would otherwise just bring handouts anyway. Then they also nap in the trees right there.
Wonderful to observe and you can approach very close, and they seem to have a very calm nature, although I'm no monkey expert. Where I watched, hardly any aggressive behavior that I'd seen in the far more common Thai macaque monkeys; not much competing for food. Mothers do keep their young very close at hand, and I read that females may share baby duties and I did see babies being passed, whereas I saw the mothers keeping any other monkeys away.
As you can see in photos, baby Spectacled Langurs are born with bright orange hair which then turns grey, and light skin which turns black except for the face features.

Spent a few days in Shiga Kogen this winter.... And every time I'm in Shiga Kogen I also visit these cool monkeys, about 30 min from the ski resort.... Just love them!!!
