Monkeys are primates that live in a group, called a troop. They can communicate with one another through calls, and some have learned to use tools. Monkeys can also show emotions like fear, anger, sadness, and love. They have forward-facing eyes and flat noses, with opposable thumbs that help them climb and move.
Some monkeys are kept as pets. This is controversial, and most states have regulations about keeping monkeys as pets. These often include a minimum age for owning a monkey, a long application process, high fees, and periodic wellness checks. Some people report having good relationships with their pet monkeys, but other monkey owners have reported aggression and other problems. Monkeys may be given to zoos or sanctuaries when they are no longer suitable as pets.
Unless human behavior changes, monkeys are likely to become more endangered. They are hunted for their meat and used in experiments, and they often die from diseases or poor living conditions.
Scientists have found that monkeys have a lot of similarities to humans. They can learn to use tools, have the ability to grasp items, and they are known to be very intelligent. They are capable of showing feelings like love and anger, as well as mourning the loss of loved ones. In addition, many species of monkey have the same vocal anatomy as humans and can speak using a variety of sounds, including screams and laughs.
The Monkey crawl is a useful exercise for developing the ability to move laterally using both the upper and lower body rhythmically. It can be trained with other crawling patterns for a full-body workout that improves strength, mobility, and coordination.
