The monkeys on Monkey Mountain live in very close family units...very human behavour. I've climbed the mountain to their homes and have gotten closer than any other people. They know me well now and allow my camera and I to intrude in their group rituals. They're not picking for fleas in this video. They are actually harvesting the salt from their fur. In the Summer, the heat and humidity can be overwhelming. Imagine the monkeys with those built in fur coats. That salt keeps them healthy. It's an amazing thing to watch.
