  1. hi, I see you requested the species "Indian monkey". What species is that, do you have a binomial name? To me this looks like a macaque. Posted 10 years ago

The bonnet macaque is a macaque endemic to southern India. Its distribution is limited by the Indian Ocean on three sides and the Godavari and Tapti Rivers along with a related competing species of rhesus macaque in the north. Land use changes in last few decades have resulted in changes in its distribution boundaries with the rhesus macaque, raising concern for its status in the wild.
