A terrestrial monkey (paragraph one) that spends the majority of its time in the trees (paragraph two)?

Yes.... they live on the ground in forests (in trees). I think the problem was one of translation. I've made a minor, clarifying edit. - UtherSRG (talk) 18:59, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Pronunciation

Can someone add the pronunciation for macaque? ~MDD4696 18:17, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

It is pronounced something like Makak 72.192.80.123 14:55, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] How Many?

Any idea how common they are, anybody? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.110.221.18 (talk • contribs).

They are very very common! In Japan, they harass shopkeepers so much that the shopkeepers use Airsoft Plastic B.B. Guns to ward away the monkeys from stealing goods! They are predominantly found in Mid to Northern Japan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.104.35.54 (talk) 00:41, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
