Long-tailed macaque, Macaca fascicularis Raffles, 1821 from Sabah / Borneo – Kinabatangan.

Anyone of us who has ever been to Borneo has seen the long-tailed macaques more than once. In some national parks, they are even animals you don’t want to meet, as they regularly attack tourists who are carelessly carrying food around with them or simply a plastic bag, the latter often contains food and the long-tailed macaques have learnt this too. I have rarely photographed the animals in recent years, but sometimes there are great lighting moods for animals that you have seen thousands of times and then you can’t help but take a photo anyway.
