Order Primates

activity

Activity patterns. Campbell's Monkey is diurnal and predominantly arboreal. In the Tai Forest, individuals spend 70 % of their time feeding and foraging, 20 % resting, and 7 % traveling. Campbell’s Monkeys spend more time in the lower parts of the forest canopy and walk more and leap less than any other arboreal guenons. Further studies in the Tai Forest have shown that they use the ground for 15 % of their time, and the shrub layer for 22 % oftheir time. About 58 % oftheir feeding time is spent in the shrub layer (below 5 m) and on the ground. Campbell’s Monkeys also sit when resting and stand when feeding, more than any other monkey. They are reported to be good swimmers, allowing them to reach small islands to forage.
