Second, bathing monkeys: macaques; Crown: Wear a hat. The monkey is not a real person when he wears a hat. Metaphor is superficial, just like a puppet. It is often used to satirize people who take refuge in evil forces and steal power.
Third, monkeys are a general term. Many animals in primates are called monkeys. Primates are 1 order mammals, the highest group in the animal kingdom, with developed brains; The track faces forward and the track spacing is narrow; The toes (fingers) of hands and feet are separated, and the thumb is flexible, and most of them can hold hands with other toes (fingers).
Monkeys are medium-sized, with equal limbs or slightly longer hind limbs, long or short tails, cheek pouches and calluses, and live in arboreal or terrestrial areas, which are the common characteristics of monkeys. Some characteristics of monkey species are similar. For example, many New World monkeys have curly tails, which can be used to catch branches when they climb trees. On the contrary, monkeys in the old world did not have curly tails, but their nostrils were smaller and the distance between them was very close. Some have hard skin on their backs, just like embedded cushions. Some people also have trichromatic vision like humans; Others are bicolor or monochrome. Although monkeys in the old and new worlds have forward eyes like apes, their faces are different; Moreover, each kind of monkey has certain characteristics, such as the type of nose, chin and buttocks. Therefore, if you want to understand monkeys, you must understand their individual characteristics. In the process of life from forest to grassland, monkeys have been evolving at an alarming rate. Monkeys are the closest animals to humans.
Newborn monkeys always entangle their mothers' hands or feet. It is very important for young monkeys to entangle their mothers' hands and feet, because the mother monkeys can climb trees with their hands and feet, so they should be wrapped well to avoid falling off when climbing. Monkeys have a long childhood, sometimes as long as three years. When they were young, they always followed their mother.
The mother monkey will also hold the young monkey with her tail in case they get lost or have an accident. When monkeys grow up, they will start to play with other monkeys in the same year. By playing together, monkeys learn how to live in groups and some natural skills, such as climbing trees. Monkeys have social behavior. Leaders enjoy food and spouses first, and other members show obedience to them. When the group is attacked, the first monkey will stand up against the enemy.
Most of them are omnivores, eating plant or animal food. There are different ways to choose food and feed. For example, monkeys are good at picking bugs in tree holes or crevices. Orangutans eat a lot and spend most of their time foraging. The stomach of colobus monkeys has a special structure, and most species eat plant food containing a lot of crude fiber.
Different kinds of monkeys eat different foods, but mainly fruits, leaves of plants, seeds, nuts, flowers, insects, spiders, animals and eggs of small animals. Although most monkeys are vegetarians, baboons among them occasionally eat meat and even steal the young of chimpanzees or other animals when they have the chance.
Even so, baboons don't hunt animals as well as lions and wild dogs. Langurs mainly eat leaves and other plant parts, but they also like fruits, flowers, seeds and insects. Besides fruits and flowers, baboons in West Africa also eat leaves, bark, grass, tree trunks, insects, eggs and lizards.
Monkeys comb their hair not to find lice, but to eat food that lacks electrolytes. Their hair produces salt crystals. They comb each other's hair to find salt to eat (this is also their habit of foraging), which can enhance the direct feelings of the group.
Most primates live in different forms of arboreal or semi-arboreal life, and only ring-tailed lemurs, baboons and marmosets live in land or rock areas. Usually small groups, but also large groups. Most people can walk upright, but not for long. Most of them are active during the day, and at night they are refers to monkeys, some big lemurs and night monkeys. Japanese lemurs and Japanese lemurs sleep for several days to weeks in the hot and dry summer season.
