Have you ever seen the most terrifying monkey in the world? Some time ago, the video of the monkey and the dog group went viral, and the fierce picture of the monkey angrily throwing the dog was close at hand. Who knows how strong the monkey's combat power really is?
In this issue, the concept of science and the world will give you an understanding of 10 kinds of small but fierce monkeys, and how effective they are.
The first is the mountain fish, which is an African primate, eats omnivorous, and has a strong running ability, reaching a maximum speed of 40 kilometers per hour. It usually eats plants and loves to eat fruits, but most eats invertebrates, such as ants, beetles, etc., but if it has the opportunity, it will choose to eat larger vertebrates.
It is precisely because of its "picky eater" and "love of sports" that it lays the foundation for having a strong body. But although it is small in size, its temper is not small, it is grumpy and fierce, its teeth are long and sharp, its claws are sharp, and its arm strength is also very large, about 3 times that of an adult, which can be said to be threatening to all kinds of predators.
If it is angry, even the small leopard must be in awe of it, and it is not afraid of animals such as poisonous snakes. At the same time, the IQ of the mountain fish is also quite high, and it is known as one of the "most intelligent primates". So, when we see a small animal, don't be confused, maybe it has a fierce attack.
Talking about Mount Emei, everyone will think of such a sentence: Sichuan", "Emei Tianxia Show", but some people will feel a little "cool", because there is a kind of monkey in Mount Emei - Mount Emei Spirit Monkey. The monkeys here are complained about by many tourists: the monkeys here are not at all at ease, bluntly saying: they are too bad.
Why? Because the Emei Mountain Spirit Monkey is semi-wild protection, that is, the wild has a strong wild nature, they will rob the food in the hands of tourists, if there is no food, they will be more frantic to turn over the packages in the hands of tourists, snatch the camera in the hands of tourists, steal mobile phones and wallets, and even sometimes scratched by it. Therefore, none of the tourists who are happy to come to visit can end the tour happily.
If you talk about Africa, there is also a monkey's small appearance that hides a fierce attack power - the prairie baboon. It has long, sharp teeth, a rough temperament, barks like a dog bark, and often fights in groups. If an attacker is encountered, the leader of their clan takes the lead, followed by other members like soldiers, throwing stones at the attacker and tearing them with sharp canine teeth.
But the status of the leader of their clan is also hard-won, and if there is a more shrewd and strong person than it, it will challenge the position of the leader, and after the fight, the winner can take the lead. Therefore, the steppe baboons not only have to resist external attacks, but also need to defend their position within the group, so their fierceness and toughness are their necessary skills.
In the highland areas of Ethiopia and Eritrea at an altitude of 2,000-5,000 meters, because of its steep terrain, human beings are prohibitive, but it is in this mountainous and dangerous canyon that inhabits the lion-tailed baboons that are difficult to die. If an alien male wants to enter the colony, he must compete through fighting to be able to enter.
However, the leader of the challenged race will show his lion-like canine teeth to show his attack power, so that to a certain extent, the intruders dare not act rashly, or directly flee in a hurry. But baboons who generally succeed in their attacks and become leaders will try their best to destroy their predecessors.
Because of this it is convenient to "liberate" the female baboon from caring for young children, so that she can mate with them and have her own offspring. Therefore, it is not difficult to see that the lion's tail baboon's extremely strong attack power lies in its sharp teeth.
In Vietnam, border countries such as Laos have the same monkeys - guinea-tailed monkeys. They are 50–77 cm long for males and 40–57 cm for females. Because it lives in tropical and subtropical areas, the bush jungle is tall, and their climbing ability is also extremely strong, and tall trees can quickly reach the top.
Jumping between the canopy of trees also creates their physical strength and strength. This kind of monkey is also raised in the zoo, but the old male monkeys raised are extremely fierce and extremely aggressive, so the iron net of the zoo is also reinforced several layers.
In addition to these five kinds of monkeys with "contrast cuteness", there are more fierce monkeys. This type of monkey lives in parts of Nigeria and is one of the most endangered animals in Africa. It is only 70 cm long, likes to live in groups, and consists of more than twenty members in a group, but at most a group can reach hundreds.
Each of their groups will also select a strong old baboon to lead the members, and during the day they will sleep in the trees and go to the group to find food, but whenever they encounter a threat, the leading baboon will show their fangs and begin to lead the group against the enemy.
Therefore, although they are relatively small, they live in groups and have many companions when attacked, so they are not afraid of "visitors".
In Kalimantan, there is also a monkey family on the verge of being, the proboscis monkey, which is unusually peculiar in appearance and is the only species found that does not belong to the ruminant suborder but can ruminate. At the same time, the microorganisms growing in its stomach can also break down certain toxins, and when it eats toxic food, these toxic substances will be decomposed by microorganisms and lose their toxicity.
And why is it called: proboscis monkey? Of course, because of its long nose, their nose will become larger and larger with age, and eventually the length can reach 7 to 8 cm, so the name of the proboscis monkey is also its own.
After learning about the proboscis monkey that comes with its own funny, let's take a look at a monkey that can be said to be relatively ugly - the Arabian baboon. It has an ugly face and a peculiar color. Why? It is because: its head is large, its brow bone is high and protruding, its eyes are dark and its eye sockets are sunken, and its face is very angular.
There is also a high bulge line, the nose is dark red, the bridge of the nose is straight to the forehead, and the whole face shape looks like a dog's head, so it is also nicknamed "dog head monkey". But the Arabian baboon also has a ferocious attack power. In a zoo in Wuxi, There are Arabian baboons, which grin at tourists.
In nature, they have a majestic temperament, and those who come to attack will surely meet them and will not flinch. So don't tease them while watching them inside the zoo! So as not to be happy to visit the garden, cry and cry home!
Next is the baboon, which mainly inhabits areas such as tropical savannas, and it is the East African baboon. In this monkey family, although the number of females is large, the male status is higher, and the male East African baboons are determined by fighting with each other, because only high-ranking male baboons can mate with female baboons in heat.
The East African baboon is abundant and widely distributed. Local farmers hate them because they eat their crops. Their natural enemies are lions, cheetahs and other animals, and it is not difficult to see from its natural enemies that they also have extremely strong offensive power, because the hunting ability of lions and cheetahs is obvious to all. Therefore, if it is not strong, it is weak not only a representative of human society but also a phenomenon of the animal kingdom.
And the last one, it is a wild animal under national key protection, it is - the Nepalese gray langur. They are 60 cm long and weigh about 20 pounds, which can be described as small and flexible. The most prominent feature of the Nepalese grey langur is that they have a super bouncing ability, and they can jump to a height of 8m in a jump.
And jumping from a height of 12m is also a breeze. Just like those ancient gods and immortals "flying cornices and walking the wall" have light skills. Moreover, there is an interesting phenomenon in this monkey group: their male monkeys will spontaneously form a group, and the male monkeys in this group are all without mates, commonly known as "single groups".
There are "single groups" of course, there are also "love groups", but the peaceful situation within the "love group" is not as good as the "single group", because there are often fights between monkeys and monkeys, and naturally the "group owners" in the group will change frequently. And the newly appointed Monkey King will immediately show an arrogant appearance and use the power in his hands to bully the weak.
In this way, it is better to live in the "single group" than in the "love group". What are your thoughts after reading this issue? Welcome to my comments section.
