Do monkeys eat apples?

The feeding habits of Monkeys are very interesting. What they will consume depends on the species. However, there are many common elements that they all seem to follow along. Such patterns of behavior are the result of their physical needs, mental abilities, and the habitat that they happen to live in.

For most Monkeys fruit is the primary food that they will consume. There are hundreds of types of fruits found in the forests where they live. These fruits though are seasonal and so they move around their home habitat to find them. They are able to calculate what will be readily available during particular times of the year.

They often spread seeds too from the fruits as they move along. This is part of why the Monkey is so important to the habitat. The spreading of the seeds helps to insure future vegetation will be able to grow. Plants and leaves are all over their locations too. They will eat them when they can’t find fruit.
