The Moor Macaque (Macaca maura) has brown/black body fur with a pale rump patch and pink bare skin on the rump. They are about 50-58.5cm and eat figs, bamboo seeds, buds, sprouts, invertebrates and cereals in tropical rainforests. They are sometimes called dog-apes because of their dog-like muzzles, although they are no relation to apes. They inhabit only Sulawesi (Indonesia). Scientific classification or biological classification is how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms. ...

The Moor Macaque is endangered mostly due to habitat loss from an expanding human population and deforestation to increase agricultural land area. It is estimated that only 1000 Moor Macaques are left in Sulawesi. Because several Sulawesi macaque species are endangered, information on ecology and behaviour is essential and now that we know more about all of the Macaque species including the Moor Macaque, conservation management plans are being designed. |
