Photo of the Day – Monkeys in Ubud, Bali

Image

The monkeys in the Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud, Bali  have lost all fear of humans and most animals due to the 10,000 tourist per month.  While we were there guides instructed the visitors on the Do’s and Don’ts to safely react to the monkeys.  The forest of about 27 acres of wandering paths contains Hindu temples for bathing and creamation, as well as over 115 species of trees.


Mom and their babies are quite attached and a lot of fun to watch and photograph.

Feeding the monkeys is fun and safe if done according to the guides instructions.
