Predictably, I missed #WorldMonkeyDay yesterday, but here’s a post with some langurs, a day late.

A watercolour illustration of a blue monkey standing on a mossy tree branch, painted by Mark Beeson.

Yesterday was Monkey Day! 🐒

Mark Beeson studied Blue Monkeys in Malawi, describing them as "beautiful creatures [...] distinctive, yet blending with the colours of leaves, bark, fruits clouds and blue sky.”

The Rest is History podcast once chose the greatest 10 monkeys in history and unaccountably left this one out. I have never quite trusted it since. liberalengland.blogspot.com/2025/12/for-...

The UK govt. recently revealed that British scientists experimented on 1,936 monkeys last year alone - and over 30,000 since 2014.⁠

We think there's a better way. This #WorldMonkeyDay we're standing against procedures on these animals.

Act Now to Protect Primates from the Cruel Pet Trade Nonhuman primates are wild animals, not pets or playthings. Instead of swinging from trees and nurturing social bonds, primates kept as pets endure a lifetime of deprivation and pose a serious threat ...

This is unfathomably cruel—and sets these primates up for a life of misery. Use AWI’s Action Center to tell your federal legislators that primates aren’t pets—and ask them to cosponsor the Captive Primate Safety Act: www.congressweb.com/AWI/521?fram... #WorldMonkeyDay

Langur alert!!! 🚨

You all know langurs are my favorite monkeys.... so I thought I'd share this video from Langur Project Penang about the Dusky Langur!

Hoy es el #WorldMonkeyDay, un día que debería ser para celebrar y admirar a estos maravillosos animales pero que queremos utilizar para recordar a todos aquellos que son víctimas de la devastación y el horror humano.

It's turns out it's #WorldMonkeyDay!

A collage of monkey photographs, including snow monkeys, colobus monkeys, tamarins, capuchins, marmosets, vervets, proboscis monkeys, howler monkeys, mandrills, and so forth. Text reads, "Monkey day!"

It's #WorldMonkeyDay today! Despite being only a few short branches away from us on the tree of life, more than half of all primate species (monkeys included!) face extinction. By studying and protecting the natural world, we secure a brighter future not just for the monkeys, but ourselves as well.

World Monkey Day! A time to celebrate these wonderful beings, but also a time to remember how they continue to suffer at the hands of humans across the globe: exploited, persecuted & abused. Please speak up for #monkeys: actionforprimates.org

A guinea baboon infant is looking into the camera with her hand under the head as if she's posing for the camera. The face and handss of the infant are pink, the fur is black. The infant is in the center of the picture, left and right of her is brown fur visible from adult individuals sitting next to her.

A juvenile guinea baboon is eating a palmnut. The baboon has a black face and light brown fur. It holds the palmnut with both hands and tries stuffing it into its mouth. The palmnut is green and almost as big as the head of the baboon. The baboon's mouth is wide open and the teeth of the upper jaw are visible, one touth is missing.

I just found out it's world monkey day 🐒
here are some Guinea baboon pictures 💚

On the left you can see an infant enjoying her rightful place in the spotlight (because both humans AND baboons just love babies), on the right is a kid stuffing her face with food #primates #worldmonkeyday #monkeyday

Ape-arently it's #WorldMonkeyDay (I know, monkeys aren't apes...)

Here's a very striking Sykes' Monkey (Cercopithecus mitis albogularis) I photographed in Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park in #Zanzibar. They're a subspecies of Blue Monkey, presumably named for that gorgeous smokey fur.

I just found out it’s #WorldMonkeyDay! I took multiple primate related classes during my undergrad, and I fell in love with them. Madagascar’s lemurs, while they aren’t monkeys, are still my favorite! One of my favorites is the aye-aye! 📸- Duke Lemur Center #lemurs #primates #ayeaye

😈📺 #NationalMonkeyDay #InternationalMonkeyDay #WorldMonkeyDay it's complicated...one word Maze is what Dan's doing there but how do you explain that to a child #Lucifer ##LuciferNetflix

I loved studying primates during undergrad! We can learn so much from these guys (minus the infanticide ofc 🥺), but we’re losing them every day due to habit loss, poaching, etc. #primates #monkeyday #worldmonkeyday

Happy #WorldMonkeyDay 🐒 Picture taken from my first experience of fieldwork with Projet Mandrillus (2011-2022)🇬🇦 At the time, this was the group's alpha male, no surprise why!

Excited to be heading back to this park in a few weeks, this time to spend some time with the gorillas and chimps 🦍

Monkeys Are Talking. Are We Listening? What They Teach Us About Our Planet’s Future Every rustle in the trees and every chatter from the treetops carries more than just sound, it carries a message. Monkeys, and primates in general, are some of the most intelligent and socially complex animals on Earth and are deeply connected to their environments. Their behaviors, habitats, and interactions with the ecosystem are not only fascinating but also serve as indicators of the state of our planet. As they navigate their forests, they’re telling us about the health of the world we all
