Vervet Monkey - Height : 100cm - 130cm (male), 95cm - 110cm (female), and weigh between 4 - 5.5kg. Characteristic of the Vervet Monkey is the black face with the white stroke above the eyes. They usually live in groups of 20 or more, but depends on the availability of food. There is a clear hierargy in each group. They are day living, where they spend most of the time on the ground looking for food etc, sleeping in trees at night. Although mostly vegaterian they would also eat small insects and even newly hatched birds. Enjoy!
