Macaque Monkeys

Macaques have a very intricate social structure and hierarchy. If a macaque that is lower level in the social chain has eaten berries and there are none left for a higher level macaque, then the one higher in status can, within this social organization, remove the berries from the other monkey’s mouth.

Bibo, Prins & Gambing (the three Macaques at Porfell Wildlife Park) came here from AAP Dutch Animal Rescue Centre. Read their story.

We have many different types of Monkey here at Porfell, including a group of Marmosets who arrived in 2011.
