I've just watched a documentary about the tigers of Rantambur (sp?) .....they kept showing monkeys that looked very like our vervet monkeys......can anyone out there tell me what called please?.......not knowing is driving me crazy!!!!

Hello, Steve. That would be a langur.

RHB,

Thanks for that......I remember seeing them about 20 years ago but I'd forgotten what they were called.

But was that the name you were after? The more I look at the pic of a vervet, the less sure I am. It has the facial features of the Indian rhesus monkey but the colouring of the langur.
