Common Monkey

The Common Monkey (Macaca mulatta), also known as the Rhesus Macaque, is one of the most widespread primates, found in a variety of habitats across Asia. These highly intelligent and adaptable animals are known for their complex social structures and behaviors. Rhesus macaques are opportunistic omnivores, feeding on fruits, leaves, insects, and even human leftovers in urban areas. Their adaptability has made them successful in many environments, but it has also led to conflicts with humans. Despite this, they are an essential part of their ecosystems and play a key role in scientific research.
