Wolves and Monkeys: Unusual Hunting Buddies


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

Wolves are carnivores. Monkeys are made of meat. Monkeys, therefore, would seem to be a pretty good choice of prey for hungry wolves, right?

Not so fast.

It turns out that some monkeys make better hunting partners than prey. That's the case on the Ethiopian highlands, where two unusual species have developed an equally unusual co-dependency. The relationship benefits both canine and primate, although at least one or two nearby rodent species might regret it.

let me throw a crazy idea out there. Wolfs are domesticating the monkeys , as they did with us long ago.
