Blue Monkey with Mouse
Despite the name, these monkeys are not noticeably blue. This curious creature spotted a mouse on the ground from high on his perch.
Like a cat, he made his way down and captured the mouse, scrambling all the way back up. I watched the scene for some time, and
I left assuming the mouse was never eaten. The mouse seemed to play dead, and anytime the monkey set it down and looked away, if the
mouse twitched, the monkey pounced back on it, picked it up and actually started to pet it!
