Tibetan Macaque- Trying to look all innocent.

            This is a male Tibetan Macaque, sometimes known as Milne-Edwards'  or Chinese Stump-tailed Macaque (Macaca thibetana).  They are the largest species of Macaque and occur mainly in Eastern Tibet and Western China.  He was watching over his harem of females when I took this and did not like me stopping to take his photo.  Males can weigh up to 19.5kg but females are much smaller (9-13kg).  An alpha male like this one usually only retains dominance over a harem for about a year before a challenger takes over.  They are mainly vegetarian, eating bamboo, leaves, roots, grass, fruit, but they also eat insects.  I took the photograph at about 2000m at Labahe, Sichuan, China.
