AnimalPhotography - Monkey Business - The two lookouts spotted something!

in animalphotography •  7 years ago 

I have spent hours watching monkeys and baboons in game reserves. I guess it is because they are so human-like and their actions and reaction are fascinating.

I spotted these two lookouts in the Addo Elephant National Park in South Africa. They were on high alert since a Black Backed Jackel just past underneath. They are vervet monkeys (aka Chlorocebus pygerythrus) and fairly common in South Africa.

Have you seen lookouts like this before?

Thanks, glad you like it.

your remark is absuletly right I think this is the same thing. And I know that there are many external and internal differences between humans and monkeys.
