Barbary Macaque (Macaca sylvanus)
Family: "Old-World" Monkey Family (Cercopithecidae)
IUCN Conservation Status: Endangered
Distinguished from other macaques by their thick grey or brown fur and extremely short tails (which measure only around 2-3cm/0.7-1.9 inches in length, and are easily missed,) Barbary Macaques are native to cool, mountainous regions of Morocco and Algeria, but are also present as an invasive species on the European island of Gibraltar (making this species the only non-human primate living wild in Europe.) Favouring cedar forest habitats, members of this species live in large mixed-sex troops led by a dominant female; females inherit their rank from their mothers (with the largest, strongest daughter of the dominant female becoming the troop’s leader following her mother’s passing) while males form a separate hierarchy with larger, older individuals at the top. Barbary Macaques breed between November and December and are noted to be highly promiscuous, with both sexes seeking out several mates in a single season (so much so that in small troops it is possible that every unrelated adult in the group will eventually mate with one another,) and when females give birth in the following spring every member of the group, including males and females that did not mate in the previous season, will contribute to carrying, feeding, teaching and protecting the young - male parental care is rare in other macaque species, but it has been suggested that, as male Barbary Macaques have no way of knowing which, if any, of the young born each year are theirs they become invested in the wellbeing of all of them (studies into interactions between males and infants suggests that they may even have “favourite children”, which they play with more often than other infants in the troop.) Like other macaques, Barbary Macaques are diurnal and spend much of the day foraging on the ground, feeding on nuts, fruits, roots, mushrooms, insects and small vertebrates such as frogs; when foraging they frantically stuff food into pouches in their cheeks to be swallowed later while at least one member of the troop remains on “sentry duty” surveying their surroundings and releasing a harsh alarm call at the first sign of predators (such as Golden Jackals or large birds-of-prey,) encouraging their troop-mates to take cover in the lower canopy of nearby trees.

Barbary macaque
Although the species is commonly referred to as the "Barbary ape", the Barbary macaque is actually a true monkey. Its name refers to the Barbary Coast of Northwest Africa.

Barbary macaque (Macaca sylvanus), family Cercopithecidae (Old World monkeys)
Diet in the wild includes a large variety of plants and insects. They eat almost every part of a plant, including not only flowers, seeds, and leaves, but also bark, stems, roots, and even gum.
