Monkeys in Hong Kong are mainly scattered around the Kowloon Peninsular. The total population of wild monkeys in Hong Kong is about 2,000, they were distributed in 30 social troops.
These pictures were taken from the Shing Mum Country Park. This country park provides monkey good habitats to reside as it has a lot of trees and a reservoir. Monkey feed mainly on plant materials like leaves, fruits, flowers, shoots and barks, but occasionally feed on insects.
