Ross’s monkey was a white-faced capuchin. The Kentucky monkey looks like a tufted capuchin
I spent some time around wild capuchins at a field station in Costa Rica long ago. They’re amazing animals and really smart, but the wild males aren’t so friendly as the young female monkey in the story. I got a kick out of a 10 lb monkey always threatening and trying to intimidate me when I came close, but always backed off because hey I was in his yard not the other way around
Sure. Super friendly. Until he rips that kid’s face off.
a mysterious super friendly monkey
I thought that article was going to head in an entirely different direction truth be told
There’s a reason that if you see a monkey interacting with people in a movie or tv show its virtually always a capuchin (even when its supposed to be an old-world monkey*). They can do damage like any monkey, but they’re really smart and trainable. A female capuchin thats used to people (this one already had a collar) is as safe as it gets.
Still, if you see a monkey on your porch your first thought should not be to try to pet it. It should probably be that it could rip your face off
ETA: *Both Outbreak and Indiana Jones which have clips posted in this thread cast a capuchin as an African monkey
This guy sure needs eating more fibers!
I regard your actions as inimical to good fellowship!
Oh shit, another documentary.
Those dream sequences and the feeling of rage? Feels pretty much like my life currently.
It sure does! A friend of mine is on the board.
(Kentucky contains multitudes.)
I hope we get well soon! We can´t stand another year with covid looming around.
