A Spider Monkey mother and baby. I'll be honest, these monkeys really freak me out. I don't know why but they just do! One came right upto the glass and I jumped back. I think it's the speed and huge eyes.

Monkey's are considered to be an auspicious in Bhutan, and this one was seen on Losar itself.

This photo was taken on the drive from Punahka to Paro, and I was rather groggy at the time. I was still in the car when it was taken too. Nevertheless, I'm fairly pleased with it!

I think he's trying to tell me that he is #1. I took this image of the Capuhin Monkey in Manual Antonio Park in Costa Rica.

Petite visite à la Monkey Forest, prudence..

Rangez vos lunettes, téléphones portables et agripez bien votre appareil photo.. Ce sont d'habiles voleurs.. Ayez les yeux partout et je vous déconseille de leur donner à manger. Ils paraissent inoffensifs mais j'ai rencontré un touriste qui s'est fait mordre à plusieurs reprises, obligé d'aller à l'hopital tous les jours pour se faire des piqures contre la rage... Soyez prudents. Les singes d'Ubud sont cependant moins agressifs que ceux d'Uluwatu.

La Monkey Forest d'Ubud est une réserve naturelle située à Ubud (Bali). Elle abrite plus de 200 macaques crabiers (Macaca fascicularis). Quatre groupes de singes différents occupent chacun son propre territoire dans le parc. C'est une attraction très prisée par les touristes à Ubud. La Monkey Forest appartient au village de Padangtegal, où siège son conseil d'administration. La Padangtegal Wenara Wana Fondation gère la Monkey Forest, son but étant de préserver son caractère sacré et de promouvoir les lieux en tant que destination pour les visiteurs.

Les singes évoluent en toute liberté dans ce sanctuaire. A l'entrée du parc sont affichées des consignes de prudence à l'attention des visiteurs, les réactions de ces animaux étant parfois imprévisibles, y compris lorsqu'on leur tend de la nourriture.

Samango Monkey - Cape Vidal.

A rare, shy and secretive monkey which is not often seen in South Africa. The population at Cape Vidal is fortunately not shy and they regulary 'pose' for the camera.

This little guy was a butt hole, he would grab the fence and shake it as people went by.

It was so funny to watch the monkey get out of the water because he did it the same way a human would...pulled himself out with his front paws. Plus, a wet monkey is a pretty funny sight!
