Saki ! - ketchim - 12-06-2013

Most of you probably will think Japanese .........

BUT I am reading about that Monkey in Guyana  Wink


Re: Saki ! - ketchim - 12-06-2013

Species like Saki monkeys can eat between 45 and 50 species of fruit every day,

often consuming their "five a day" in a hour of foraging..

As body size increases so does the preference for juicier foods.

Small monkeys such as marmosets and tamarins eat more insects and less fruit.

The Saki monkey is a specie that can survive almost entirely on Fruit:

Bigger species eat more leaves as their guts can handle toxins better
