Swede’s Photographs

Adaptable Capuchin in the Wild

Here is a white-faced capuchin monkey (Cebus capucinus) that I encountered in Roatan, Honduras, a couple of years ago. Upon reviewing the photograph, I just noticed that the monkey appears to have only one arm—something I failed to observe at the time. Another detail I've noted is that these monkeys seem to possess fully articulated hands in place of feet, a feature that differs slightly to significantly from those of the great apes.
