Vervet at Sunset!

            Featured on Flickr Explore # 85 on 2022-06-17.

The vervet monkey (Chlorocebus pygerythrus), or simply vervet, is an Old World monkey of the family Cercopithecidae native to Africa. 
They are arboreal monkeys, which means that they spend much of their lives in the trees. Because they are arboreal, you are likely to find vervet monkeys climbing and jumping in the forests and wooded areas near rivers and streams.
A vervet monkey's long arms and long tail help it move quickly and safely through the trees to search for food and locate members of its troop. Vervet monkeys are omnivores, which means they eat other animals as well as plants. Some of their favorite foods include leaves, flowers, fruit, insects, eggs, and small birds. You might have noticed that these foods all have something in common - they can be found in the trees!

This very cute looking Vervet Monkey was captured on a Photography safari on a late evening game drive in Nairobi National Park, Kenya.
