Demystifying the Strange Beauty of the Proboscis Monkey’s Large Nose

Of all the #monkey species around the world, one stands out with its large, bizarre nose. In male proboscis monkeys, their bulbous noses will often … Demystifying the Strange Beauty of the Proboscis Monkey’s Large Nose

A self-indulgent drawing to cure my boredom... Here's an illustration of Star!! My OC and current sona!

They're a fashionista monkey with pearlescent fur! Their fur colour moulds to match the outfit they're wearing, making them a force to be reckoned with as a model. Hopefully I make more artworks with them soon! I wanna experiment with their different fur colours :3

📷 Hay fotos que no requieren nada especial. Basta con estar en el lugar adecuado en el momento oportuno. Como en el caso de esta foto: Kioto durante el momiji. Los árboles se vuelven rojos y está todo precioso, no importa hacia dónde apuntes la cámara. Aquí, el rojo de los árboles sirve de contrapunto para ese mono que parece ensimismado en sus pensamientos. Quizás era lunes y se le hacía cuesta arriba...

Buenos días. Y ánimo con el lunes 🖖🏼

Dusky Leaf Monkey. The babies are orange for some reason. Endangered species, but the population in Prachuap province is doing well. This is because the only road to the monkey forest goes through a guarded military base and tourists feed them bananas, peanuts and tomatoes. Ecologists are concerned that the monkeys in said area might get fat from eating too much fruit and not enought leaves. #monkey #orangemonkey #monkeybaby #nature #thailand #nonhumanportraits

Adaptable Capuchin in the Wild

Here is a white-faced capuchin monkey (Cebus capucinus) that I encountered in Roatan, Honduras, a couple of years ago. Upon reviewing the photograph, I just noticed that the monkey appears to have only one arm—something I failed to observe at the time. Another detail I've noted is that these monkeys seem to possess fully articulated hands in place of feet, a feature that differs slightly to significantly from those of the great apes.
