What are the life habits or characteristics of golden monkeys?

Golden monkeys live in high mountains and dense forests. Mainly living in trees, but also looking for something to eat on the ground. Feed on wild fruits, buds, bamboo shoots and bryophytes. The staple food is leaves, shoots, flowers and fruits, as well as bark and roots. I like insects, birds and eggs.

Golden monkeys have a typical family life style, and members take care of each other, feed together and play together. In the golden monkey's home, the underage little golden monkey is very curious, naughty and loved by his parents. But when he grows up, the little male monkey will be driven out of the house by his father and can only live independently in the wild.

Golden monkey is a typical forest arboreal animal, which lives in the forest at an altitude of 1500 ~ 3300 meters all the year round. Its vegetation types and vertical distribution zones belong to evergreen, deciduous and broad-leaved mixed forests in subtropical mountainous areas.
