Roaming wild monkey makes visitors to Hai Van Pass curious
On Wednesday morning, local residents and visitors saw a rare red-face monkey roaming near the road leading to the Hai Van Pass. The roaming wild money made them feel curious, and they captured and recorded the stunning image of this animal.
However, many vehicle drivers were forced to brake sharply as the monkey suddenly jumped on the street. This easily made drivers lose control and cause unexpected incidents.
It is known that the monkey has a scientific name as Macaca Arctoides. It belongs to Group IIB which features rare animals restricted from being held in captivity, hunted, traded or killed. It often appears in the Hai Van, Ba Na and Bach Ma mountains.
This species has thick, long, dark brown fur covering their bodies. Stump-tailed macaques have bright pink or red faces which darken to brown or nearly black as they age and are exposed to sunlight. They are covered with long, shaggy fur, but their short tails and faces are hairless and they go bald with age.
