    you are totally correct. This species is totally habituated to people and freely moved amongst us. Its only predator, leopard, is extinct on zanzibar. Touching and feeding are totally prohibited. The only other primate we observed at a distance was the spotnose guenon. You can now nibble on a manufactured monkey bisquit.
