What are the fun facts of spider monkey?

Spider monkey is a primate living in Central and South America. There are seven different species of spider monkeys. It has long, thin arms with look-like hands and a very long tail that allow it to swing through the trees. It does not have a thumb.

It looks like a spider as it hangs upside down from its tail with its arms and legs dangling. And that’s why scientists named it so.

Like most primate species, it is a very social animal. They live in groups called troops. When foraging for food, they split into smaller groups and share their bounty.

It uses different sounds such as scream, sob and even bark for communication.
