Monkeys are frugivores, eating mostly fruits but also leaves and flowers. They learn what to eat in their habitat, and they often travel around to find the best foods at a given time.
They can tell when food is safe and what it tastes like, and they avoid poisonous plants. They usually eat the seeds of the fruit they consume, so they spread their “crop” throughout the environment.
Their hands are very flexible, which helps them move along narrow branches in the canopy of a tree. Many species of monkey have prehensile tails, which they use to hang from branches and grab food.
Some monkeys have the ability to crush shells, making it easier for them to eat clams and other seafood. They also eat insects and birds’ eggs, which provide protein and other nutrients.
They are extremely intelligent animals, and they have a number of ways to communicate with one another. They can make vocal sounds such as roars and whistles, but they also use their body language to express themselves. They often groom each other, which is not just a way to clean themselves of dirt and parasites; it’s also a form of affection and a way to make peace with others.
Scientists have used monkeys to study human behavior. They have a wide variety of relationships with humans, from being kept as pets or used in experiments to serving as service animals for the disabled. Monkeys are popular characters in books, movies and television shows such as the TV show Monkey, Monsieur Eek and Curious George. Sun Wukong, the Monkey King from Chinese mythology and the protagonist in Journey to the West, is another well-known monkey character.
