An informational sign about a Mona monkey is prominently displayed against a metal cage, likely within a zoo or animal enclosure in Makurdi, Nigeria. The sign, oriented vertically, provides details about the species, accompanied by a monochrome image of a monkey's face. The text on the sign reads: "Mona monkey (Cercopithecus mona) The mona monkey is an old world monkey that lives in western Africa between Ghana and Cameroon. The mona monkey can also be found on the island of Grenada as it was transported to the island aboard slave ships headed to the New World during the 18th century. This guenon lives in groups of up to thirty-five in forests. It mainly feeds on fruit, but sometimes eats insects and leaves. The mona monkey has brown agouti fur with a white rump. Its tail and legs are black and the face is blue-grey with a dark stripe across the face. The mona monkey carries food in cheek pouches." The sign itself is white with black text, and the included image appears to be a black and white photograph or drawing of a monkey's head, showing its eyes and facial features. The sign is attached to the rusty metal cage with small hooks or wires. The background consists entirely of the metal grid of the cage, suggesting an indoor or covered enclosure. No people, specific time of day, or weather conditions are discernible.
