To answer your question about ...Eki Qushay Akhwan,<br /><br />To answer your question about whether howler monkeys are tame, they are tame in the sense that they will sit in a tree and do not mind you staring at them even if they are on a low branch. If you howl at them you can usually get them to start howling back. <br /><br />In my experience, they will always stay on branches that are our of the reach of humans. I have never seen them actually come into physical contact with people. The closest I have seen is a couple of howlers who hung on a tree branch that extended over a road at a height of 3-4 meters (10-13 ft.)<br /><br />If you want to see some photos of monkeys who will make contact with humans, although not tame, I will have some photos for you coming up in about a week..Dave-CostaRicaDailyPhoto.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567583999945259422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486504529519277316.post-33732158789693111722009-10-12T05:54:33.868-07:002009-10-12T05:54:33.868-07:00This little guy looks like he's posing for a s...This little guy looks like he's posing for a studio protrait.
