This image is call ‘Monkey Business’ and was taken in Dublin Zoo in 2009. These guys are called Sulawesi Macaque’s or are often referred to as Celebes Crested Macaque. Unfortunately they are currently listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) due to hunting and the clearing of their native habitat, sometimes even taken when very young as pets by the local population.
