Female Seated Long Tailed Macaque Monkey Intently Stares Stock Image

Tioman, Malaysia - April 17, 2016: A female long tailed macaque monkey stares intently while sitting inside a forest area of Pulau Tioman island, Pahang, Malaysia. This type of monkey is endemic to Southeast Asia and is often found in forested areas near urban centers. Long-tailed macaques live in primary, secondary, coastal, mangrove, swamp, and riverine forests from sea level up to elevations of 2000 m (6561 ft). They prefer forested areas near water and are found in higher densities near riverbanks, lakeshores, or along the seacoast, especially in Southeast Asia. These macaques are primarily arboreal - live in trees - and can leap distances between trees up to five meters (16.4 ft), using their long tails for balance.
