Spotting our first Mona monkey!
As we started entering the Anandale park, almost immediately, I saw a Mona monkey. Turns out that would also be the last one we would see. These monkeys are very shy. I had barely gotten the phone out when it scooted up. You can see the monkey – especially the face – if you carefully notice the black path in the middle.
Like I mentioned, that was the last spotting of a monkey this trip! Also, apparently they are not native to the island. They were brought in from West Africa.
