Monkey

Monkeys are diverse and intelligent mammals found in various ecosystems, from tropical rainforests to savannas. They are divided into two main groups: Old World monkeys, native to Africa and Asia, and New World monkeys, found in Central and South America. Monkeys exhibit a wide range of behaviors, including tool use, social grooming, and complex vocalizations. They play a vital role in their ecosystems, such as dispersing seeds and controlling insect populations. However, many monkey species face threats from deforestation, hunting, and the illegal pet trade.
