Named after the distinctive bonnet-shaped patch of hair on its head, this monkey species inhabits the lush forests of Periyar National Park in southern India. With a body length ranging from 35 to 60 centimetres, these diurnal primates thrive on a diet consisting of ripe fruits, leaves, and insects.

The yawning posture reveals not only its impressive set of canines but also showcases its omnivorous nature. This single moment frozen in time allows us to appreciate both the beauty and complexity found within our natural world.
