Dryas Monkey Chlorocebus dryas Palm Oil Detectives

Dryas #Monkeys are secretive and vividly colourful monkeys who hang on to survival in the forests of the #Congo. Tragically, there is estimated to only be 100-250 individual monkeys still alive. They are fruit-eaters and play a critical role in ensuring the dispersion of seeds and therefore the future health of the DRC's #rainforests. They are preyed upon by leopards in the Congo basin. However, the main threat they face is the illegal poaching and hunting by humans for #bushmeat, along with #de

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐵🔺 Researchers at #CarnegieMellon tested geometric shape matching in #monkeys, #children, and #adults with little formal schooling. Both monkeys and preschoolers relied on intuitive reasoning, while educated adults used symbolic tools.
