The monkey's distinguishing feature is its bonnet-shaped patch of hair atop its head, giving it its unique name. With a body length ranging from 35 to 60 centimeters, this diurnal primate thrives on a varied diet consisting of ripe fruits, leaves, and insects. Living in close-knit groups amidst both evergreen and deciduous forests, these arboreal creatures are an integral part of India's rich fauna.
