Contemplative Geoffroy's Spider Monkey (Ateles geoffroyi), an endangered species at Belize Zoo in Belmopan, Belize

I forget what type of monkey this is, I know it's Japanese though.

Monkey roaming around in complete freedom in Thekkady, Kerala.

Monkey figurines at the Fu Lu Shou Complex for the Chinese New Year festival celebrations.

Went back to the park with Larisa. One of these monkeys peed on me. Just a little bit.

This is a leather monkey I got from Busch Gardens in Tampa. My nickname for Jack (my partner of 11 years) is Smoosh Monkey. I've picked up a monkey figure of some sort from pretty much everywhere I've travelled. This guy Jack saw in Tampa and a year later when I went there it was still there, so I had to get it!

One of the places we visited was Swayambhunath, aka The Monkey Temple. It is an ancient religious complex on a high point of Kathmandu. There are hundreds of Monkeys living freely in the area. We were warned not to get too close, but this one came pretty close, perhaps wanting food, but all he got was his photo taken! Cute!

Someone else's tour guide was kind enough to point out the monkeys while we were walking in Tortuguero national park. We watched them for ages and they even threw a small branch at some other passers by.

Lilongwe Wildlife Park. A sanctuary for creatures found locally.

Was heißt hier "Das sieht affig aus."? Wohl noch nichts von hängenden Gärten gehört?

Squirrel monkey - Totenkopfaffe, Mountain Zoo Halle

Monkey loved John because he would wrestle with her and play rough. For a little dog she's one tough cookie!

Monkeys were a terrible mania in this area. Of course, we were in their area, but they were really monkeying around! One decision we made as trekkers was to collect all plastic waste (actualy, anything non bio degradable) in a separate plastic bag and take it back to Chennai. One of these monkeys caught hold of the bags, took it to the top of the tree a limb of which was leading right on top of the stream. Of course, as was it's nature, it ripped them apart and discarded the waste "into" the stream in instalments! The exact opposite of what we intended. Four of us went into the stream, right under the monkey, caught the waste material was it was being discarded and repackaged it for Chennai! The monkey was really adamant and came back for the package - but we managed to shoo it away!

These monkeys are endemic to Zanzibar. The locals call them "kima punju" which means "poison monkey" in Swahili -- partly because of their strong smell and partly because they slowly kill off many of the trees on which they feed.

 

This batch of photos is from a recent trip-of-a-lifetime safari to the Selous Game Reserve and Zanzibar island in Tanzania, East Africa. What a wonderful and memorable experience it was.

This little guy lives on Devil's Island and charms tourists out of MANY bananas.

Two old ladies living out the final years of their lives in the comfort of the home they have known since ... ages/always?

 

I haven't stopped and checked out the spider monkeys for some time. In previous years i'd noticed the number of old ladies had decreased, and this time i could only see two on display. Cuddled together sitting on a heating pad.

 

Visually, i dislike the spider monkey enclosure. However, i'm sure the old girls are quite comfortable there, and i'd hate them to be disrupted by any changes. But I wonder what will become of the exhibit when the old girls are all gone. I do hope the old enclosure isnt heritage listed (i bet it is!).

 

The average life span for spider monkeys is apparently 27 years of age. And the oldest animal registered lived until 33 years of age. (Or so one site on the internet tells me).

 

Now i'm keen to know exactly how old taronga's remaining old ladies are.
