+ Rainforest, Plants and animals
  * Monkeys are a very common animal in the rainforest. Most live their lives up in the canopy and the understory. They have long arms to swing from branch to branch, and some use their tails to hold onto the trees while they eat. They are fast and agile, jumping easily from tree to tree for food. Different monkeys eat different things. They can eat nuts, flowers, roots, and frogs.
+ Touch, Touch as communication: Non-verbal communication
  * Humans, and mammals in general, often touch each other. Touch is a kind of non-verbal communication. It is part of the 'glue' of their social life. Monkeys grooming each other's fur is a good example.
  * Monkeys' are arboreal mammals in the primate order. Apes are the descendants of Old World monkeys. Monkeys are clever, social animals who are famous for climbing trees easily. Almost every monkey has a tail, even if it is very short.
  * Some monkeys live in trees, others live on the ground. Different primate families eat fruit, leaves, insects, flowers, small mammals, reptiles, amphibians, crabs or even other monkeys. They can be kept as pets but due to their high intelligence and advanced emotional needs are not suggested. Monkeys can live in forests, savannahs, deserts and even in snowy mountains, but they are most commonly found in rainforests, except for Australia and New Guinea.
