Looks like an American monkey


These are Macaca mulatta monkeys at a park in Osaka. "On a diet of crisps, bread and sweets provided by well-meaning visitors around a third of the monkeys are now overweight... The heaviest male weighs over 29 kg and does little more than shuffle around the 420-square-metre enclosure waiting for the next hand-out." An object lesson for us from our primeval relatives.
