Northern white-cheeked gibbons are sexually dimorphic, with males and females having different colourations and the former also being slightly larger.
Males have black hair over their entire bodies, except for distinct white patches on their cheeks, as well as a prominent tuft of hair on the crown of head, and a gular sac. Females are reddish-tan in colour, lack a cranial tuft, and have a crest of black or dark brown fur running from the crown to the nape of the neck.
taken at Xcaret eco park, which was next door to our hotel in Riviera Maya, Mexico. This was one of the Spider Monkeys that lived on the island, which had lots of trees and tropical plants so I was pretty lucky to catch a glimpse of this fella as they didn't have to be visible to the public if they didn't want to. Summer 2016.
Cute little monkey with big ears following my every step, just in case I have anything for him. Adorable little thing with those big ears and big round eyes.

Sometimes I just feel like a damn monkey in a cage watching Chloë living her life and having fun.
Now, if that doesn't make one think, then what does?
3 years later and I still havn't moved on. Still caged.
In Kenya, It is very hot, so between two game safari, we decided to go to the swiming pool of the lodge. There were a lot of little monkeys, and they were drinking in the water of the pool.

These little guys move fast. This was about my best shot out of about 20 shots.
Nikon D800 with Nikkor 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-S.
Programmed Exposure and Auto-ISO chose 1/250th, f/5.6 and ISO250. EXIF shows the zoom is at 135mm - so the little guy is quite close really!

Saimiri oersteddii
Saimiri oerstedii occurs along the Pacific coast of Costa Rica and Panama inland to altitudes of up to 500 m asl. The north-eastern limit is marked by the Río Tulín in the north Herradura Mountains (9°40’N, 84°35’W) and Dota Mountains (9°37’N, 84°35’W). Along the coast of the Golfo Dulce and the Burica Peninsula to the western part of the Chiriquí Province, mouth of the Río Fonseca, including the Archipelago of the Golfo de Chiriquí, in Panama (Hershkovitz 1984; Boinski et al. 1998; Reid 1997).
There are two subspecies:
Saimiri oerstedii oerstedii occurs along the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, from the left bank of the Río Grande de Térraba to the Osa Pensinsula, along the coast of the Golfo Dulce and the Burica Peninsula to the western part of the Chiriquí Province, mouth of the Río Fonseca, including the Archipelago of the Golfo de Chiriquí, in Panama (Hershkovitz 1984; Boinski et al. 1998; Reid 1997). Surveys by Baldwin and Baldwin (1972, 1976) recorded its presence on the Burica Peninsula, but indicated that it is now restricted to a narrow strip of scattered lowland coastal forest fragments, not extending to the type locality David, although it possibly occurred as far east as Remedios (well to the east of David) prior to the 1950s. Altitudinal range is 0 to 500 m asl (Hershkovitz 1984). Rodríguez-Vargas (2003) mapped the remaining populations in Panama.
The historic range of Saimiri oerstedii citrinellus is along the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, to altitudes of up to 500 m asl. The north-eastern limit is marked by the Río Tulín in the north Herradura Mountains (9°40’N, 84°35’W) and Dota Mountains (9°37’N, 84°35’W), and the southern limit is the north bank of the Río Grande de Térraba (8°25´N, 84°25´W) (Arauz 1993; Sierra et al. 2003). Its occurrence is sporadic, and the surviving populations are entirely fragmented (Alfaro 1987; Wong 1990; Sierra et al. 2003).
