A Patas monkey (Erythrocebus patas) is observed sitting within an enclosed, dark space, likely an engine compartment or utility access panel, in Gwagwalada, Nigeria. The monkey, with reddish-brown fur on its back and sides and a lighter underside, has a distinct dark facial mask around its eyes and muzzle, and is looking directly forward. It holds a small, light-colored, rectangular food item in its right hand. Surrounding the monkey are various metallic components: a silver-colored rod extends diagonally across the mid-ground, a circular metal flange with several bolt holes is visible on the lower left, and dark, rusted machinery parts are present on the right. A crumpled black plastic bag rests in the lower right foreground, adjacent to a metallic object that appears to have text, including "RINGE." The upper background consists of a dark, uniform surface.
