Toque Macaqus In Sri Lanka
A toque macaque (Macaca sinica) is eating jackfruit while sleeping in Dambulla, Sri Lanka, on July 25, 2024. The toque macaque is a reddish-brown-colored Old World monkey endemic to Sri Lanka, where it is known as the rilewa or rilawa. Its name refers to the whorl of hair at the crown of the head, reminiscent of a brimless toque cap. (Photo by Thilina Kaluthotage/NurPhoto)
