Mandrills are the largest monkeys in the world and are found mainly in African rainforests. These magnificent creatures live in groups that are formed based on a hierarchical structure. Within a group, there is usually a single male at the top who mates with a female and fathers most of the children. These monkeys are highly territorial and very sensitive to outsider pressures. They spend their days hunting for food and at night they sleep together in trees.
