Monkeys are a fascinating and diverse group of primates that inhabit different regions of the world. With over 250 species of monkeys, they come in all shapes, sizes, and colors, and they have adapted to live in a variety of habitats, from the rainforest to the desert. Monkeys are highly intelligent and social animals, and they have complex social hierarchies within their groups. Many species of monkeys are also known for their agility and acrobatic abilities, such as swinging through trees and jumping from branch to branch. As pets, monkeys are not recommended due to their complex needs and the fact that many species are endangered.
