Tufted Capuchin Monkey 

The Tufted Capuchin Monkey (Cebus apella), also known as Brown Capuchin or Black-capped Capuchin is a New World primate from South America. It is one of the more widespread species of primates in the neotropics. Tufted Capuchins are omnivorous animals, mostly feeding on fruits and invertebrates, although they sometimes feed on small vertebrates (lizards and bird chicks) and other plant parts.  Like other capuchins, these are social animals, forming groups of 8 to 15 individuals, and are led by an alpha or dominant male. The Tufted Capuchin is more powerfully built than the other capuchins, with rougher fur and a short, thick tail. Conservation status – Least Concern.
