Photos via the Nature is Metal subreddit, where there is no useful discussion except for the identification of this as a Yunnan snub-nosed monkey. Posted as a reminder of the dentition of wild animals. A quick search didn't reveal for me the survival advantage of a snub-nosed face, especially since it's such a marked contrast to the Proboscis monkeys.
Survival advantage may be nothing more than that the snub nose makes this monkey more attractive to the opposite sex.
