I’m working on a anthropology question and need guidance to help me understand better.
Look up / find yourself an Old World Monkey that hasn’t been mentioned yet. Double-check by doing a search on the Forum page.
Write a post that includes the following information at a minimum:
Common name of your primate
This is the name that you usually see on the Zoo information signs above the Scientific name. For example, in our last forum, Bare-eared Squirrel Monkey is a common name
Scientific name of your primate. This is the Genus and species name of the primate in question.
To follow the example above, the Scientific name of that species is: Saimiri ustus
Genus and species names are always in italics OR underlined (when italics aren’t possible). The Genus name always starts with a capital letter. The species name is entirely in lower-case letters
Which countries your primate is found in, or where in the world it is found (if found in several countries). Provide a link so we know where your information comes from!
Why you picked this particular primate and any additional information that may be of interest. Was there something that you found interesting about it? Is it endangered? Etc. You have quite a bit of leeway here but responses should be at least 50 words. If you can, link to a picture of your primate, or embed the image in your post.
