Monkeys are very social animals. They use a variety of vocalizations and body movements to communicate. In addition, monkeys have long tails that help them hang from branches.
Monkeys are also known for their intelligence. They are generally omnivores. Their diet consists of seeds and insects. These animals are found in both the Old World and New World regions of the globe.
Most monkeys live in groups called troops. Each troop is made up of males and females. The females tend to stay within their troop, and the males move on to other groups.
Monkeys are considered close relatives to humans. They are part of the Haplorrhini suborder. However, they do not reach the cognitive level of great apes.
A typical monkey eats grubs, seeds, and fruit. Some species of monkeys swim across water to get to food.
The most common monkey species are the baboon, the marmoset, and the spider monkey. They are found in Africa and Asia.
Marmosets are smaller than other monkeys. Their tails are prehensile, and some species have webbed toes to help them swim.
Many monkeys live in forests and savannas. Some monkeys are nocturnal. Others, like night or owl monkeys, are strictly nocturnal.
When traveling, Monkeys must pay special attention to safety. They should avoid dangers such as staring and other animals.
Some monkeys have large noses, which improve their vocalizations. They use their noses to attract females. If a group of monkeys has a fight, one male might take the lead.
