17/31.- National Park of Manuel Antonio, white faced capuchin

The white faced capuchins are among the wisest monkeys. You will find them jumping from branch to branch, and playing on the trails. They have no problem getting close to tourists. They are curious creatures, and they know humans bring food in their bags. You should never trust a nice looking capuchin, it will steal your bag in almost no time if you are distracted.

Note that feeding the monkeys is strictly forbidden. Human food may cause their poisoning.
