Monkeys, known for their smarts and beautiful looks, are intriguing animals. Although they are omnivores and can eat both plants and animals, most monkey species have diets that tilt heavily toward plant matter. For example, New World monkeys have diets that are 95% plant and 5% invertebrates. However, meat is still needed to supply the monkeys with protein. To fulfill this need, some monkeys hunt and eat insects like grasshoppers and caterpillars to get their protein. Other monkeys rely on other foods to get the protein they need such as grass, leaves, berries, and seeds.
In the wild, monkeys often taste and smell their food to find out whether it is safe. They can also use their opposable thumbs to grasp items and manipulate them. They often learn which plants are dangerous from their parents and their siblings. In addition, many kinds of monkeys are diurnal and spend time on the ground as well as in the trees.
Most monkeys live together in groups called troops, which can include a few people or thousands of individuals. These groups are led by a male and are made up of both females and their offspring. The females in the troop share a common bond through daily mutual grooming. Unattached adult males sometimes form their own group.
A vegetarian diet can seem boring without some variety in your meals. Try adding some spices or herbs to your vegetables and fruit to add flavor. Aside from this, a lot of different sauces can go on your foods as well.
