Bonnet macaques grooming C017 / 9070
Bonnet macaques (Macaca radiata) grooming. Social grooming in monkeys involves removing dead skin, debris and insects from the skin and fur. Infants (one at lower right) are protected by their mother and feed on her milk until they are 6 to 7 months old, becoming independent at around a year old. This monkey is so named because of the bonnet-shaped patch of hair on its head. It reaches a body length of between 35 and 60 centimetres. It eats ripe fruits, leaves and insects, and lives in groups in evergreen and deciduous forests. Photographed in Periyar National Park, Kerala, southern India

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a heartwarming moment of bonnet macaques engaging in social grooming. These intelligent monkeys are seen meticulously removing dead skin, debris, and insects from each other's fur. The infants, nestled under the watchful eye of their mother, benefit from this communal care until they reach independence at around one year old. The distinctive feature that gives these macaques their name is the bonnet-shaped patch of hair on their heads. With a body length ranging between 35 and 60 centimeters, these omnivorous creatures thrive on a diet consisting of ripe fruits, leaves, and insects. They inhabit both evergreen and deciduous forests in groups. Photographed against the backdrop of Periyar National Park in Kerala, southern India, this image showcases not only the biological beauty but also the intricate social interactions within this monkey family. It highlights how personal hygiene plays an essential role in maintaining healthy relationships among these primates. Tony Camacho has skillfully captured this moment that exemplifies animal behavior and emphasizes the importance of social interaction among bonnet macaques living in harmony with nature.
