Monkey:

             Monkey are new world monkeys of subfamily cebinea Prior to 2011, the subfamily contained only a single genus, Cebus. However, in 2011 it was proposed to split the capuchin monkeys between the gracile capuchins in the genus Cebus and the robotus capuchins in the genus sapajus. The range of capuchin monkeys includes central america and South America as far south as northern Argentina.
The word capuchin derives from a group of friars named the , an offshoot from the , who wear brown robes with large hoods covering their heads. When explorers reached the  in the 15th century they found small monkeys who resembled these friars and named them capuchins.When the scientists described a specimen (thought to be a ) they noted that: "his muzzle of a tanned color,... with the lighter color around his eyes that melts into the white at the front, his cheeks..., give him the looks that involuntarily reminds us of the appearance that historically in our country represents ignorance, laziness, and sensuality. The scientific name of the genus, Cebus, on the other hand, comes from the Greek word kêbos meaning a long-tailed monkey.

 



                                              
                                                            

Physical characteristics

Capuchins are black, brown, or whitish, but their exact color and pattern depends on the species involved. They reach a length of 30 to 56 cm (12–22 in), with tails that are just as long as the body.

Behavior

Like most New World monkeys, capuchins are  and . With the exception of a midday nap, they spend their entire day searching for food. At night they sleep in the trees, wedged between branches. They are undemanding regarding their habitat and can thus be found in many differing areas. Potential predators include ,coyotes,tyras, snakes, crocodiles, and raptors, although there has only been one published observation of a predator taking a capuchin in the wild. The main predator of the tufted capuchin is the harpy eagle, which has been seen bringing several capuchins back to its nest.
 The diet of the capuchins is more varied than other monkeys in the family cebidae. They are omnivores, eating not only fruits, nuts, seeds, and buds, but also insects, spiders, birds' eggs, and small vertebrates. Capuchins living near water will also eat crabs and shellfish by cracking their shells with stones.
 

Social structure

Capuchins live in groups of 10 to 40 members. These groups consist of related females and their offspring, as well as several males. Usually groups are dominated by a single male, who has primary rights to  with the females of the group, though the  groups are led by both an alpha male and an alpha female. Mutual grooming as well as vocalization serves as communication and stabilization of group dynamics. These  are territorial animals, distinctly a central area of  with urine and defending it against intruders, though outer areas may overlap.

 Intelligence

 Capuchins are considered the most intelligent New World monkeys and are often used in laboratories. The tufted capuchin is especially noted for its long-term tool usage, one of the few examples of primate tool use other than by . Upon seeing  eating , cracking them open with their beaks, these capuchins will select a few of the ripest fruits, nip off the tip of the fruit and drink down the juice, then seemingly discard the rest of the fruit with the nut inside. When these discarded fruits have hardened and become slightly brittle, the capuchins will gather them up again and take them to a large flat boulder where they have previously gathered a few river stones from up to a mile away. They will then use these stones, some of them weighing as much as the monkeys, to crack open the fruit to get to the nut inside. Young capuchins will watch this process to learn from the older, more experienced adults but it takes them 8 years to master this.
 
In 2005, experiments were conducted on the ability of capuchins to use money. After several months of training, the monkeys began exhibiting behaviors considered to reflect understanding of the concept of a medium of exchange that were previously believed to be restricted to humans (such as responding rationally to price shocks). They showed the same propensity to avoid perceived losses demonstrated by human subjects and investors.
During the mosquito season, they crush millipedes and rub the result on their backs.
