Mangabey
The Mangabey is a type of monkey found primarily in the forests of Africa. They belong to the family Cercopithecidae and are known for their long limbs and tails. Mangabeys are medium to large-sized primates, with some species exhibiting distinctive facial features, such as a prominent brow ridge. They are social animals, often living in groups called troops.
These monkeys are primarily frugivorous, meaning they mainly eat fruits, but they also consume leaves, seeds, and insects. Mangabeys are known for their agility and can often be seen leaping between trees. Their habitat is typically dense forests, where they play a crucial role in seed dispersal.
