Peek-a-boo!

The little vervet monkeys here at Umlalazi are as naughty as they are cute – leave open a chalet door or car window and they are sure to help themselves to a treat!

    Just wondering, are these monkeys poached for sale as “pets”, or are they a protected species? I base this question on their “friendliness”, thus possibly making them easy to capture. Great shot.

      Thanks Dan! No, Vervets are seldom kept as pets and quite numerous wherever they occur, often in big cities and towns as well – they are very adaptable!
