The Vervet Monkey inhabits savana lands and mountains up to 4,000 m (13,100 ft). In East Africa these monkeys can live in mountain areas up to about 13,000 feet, but they do not inhabit rain forests or deserts. Their preferred habitat is acacia woodland along streams, rivers and lakes. They are diurnal, sleeping and eating in trees from which they seldom venture. The ververt monkey prefers woodlands of all kinds, but favors woodlands adjacent to grassland.
Howler Monkey I want to introduce you to the howler monkeys. Howler monkeys don’t need a loud speaker to talk.

Ben Ricker 5/6/09 Primate Homework Assignment 1) Did you observe any differences in locomotion among the primate groups? What are they? The Capuchin monkeys and lemurs moved in the most similar way – quickly moving on all fours around their exhibits. The orangutans were mostly sitting in the window of their cage the entire time, but when the big male did move, he did so slowly and methodically. He grasped onto a branch while he stood and ate a snack, and then sat back down on the window ledge.
The number of koalas is determined by the number of trees. Koalas are highly specialized to survive only in one type of habitat, in woodland with plenty of eucalyptus trees, also known as gum trees. Places like that provide the koala with food, water, safety from ground predators, and all other needs. Koalas do not have dens, tree- holes, or nests. They sleep, eat, and breed on the branches.
Spider Monkeys are an omnivore mammal that lives an average lifespan of 22 years. They have an an average weight of 15-19 pounds, an average height of 16-24 inches, and an average length of 16-24 inches by 24-32 inches. They have lanky arms and a tail that serves as another hand, which helps its daily life of getting from branch to branch.

Terrance Holley Mrs. Bailey English 1 18 February 2013 The Amazingly Suspicious Zoo Has the question ever been asked how much do zoo animals get paid? They probably do not make one red cent. It is a shame because they do a good job of keeping visitors entertained. The entire zoo experience is very amazing and at times suspicious.

In the book it never said that the disease started from a monkey like it did in the movie. It just said that it came from Kitum Cave. In the book they talk about wearing orange jumpsuits that they found in the cave. But in the movie they put on blue suits in the testing lab and when they go out in public to help the people they wear yellow suits.

Are zoos good or bad for animals? Everybody try to know more about something, but talking about animals we can know more about their life going to a zoo because there’s lot of animals from different places in a same one.

I agree with zoos because that’s a way to preserve the different species but sometimes animals are not in excellent conditions.
