Grivet Monkey hunting in Ethiopia

The Grivet monkey, also known as the African Green Monkey is a common sight in Ethiopia. These monkeys are known for their striking appearance, featuring greenish-olive fur with white underparts, and a distinct white browband. They thrive in a variety of habitats, from woodlands and savannas to riverine forests, displaying remarkable adaptability. Grivets are social animals, living in troops that can number from a few individuals to over fifty. Their diet is omnivorous, consisting of fruits, leaves, seeds, insects, and occasionally small vertebrates. In Ethiopia, the Grivet Monkey plays a significant ecological role as seed dispersers, they contribute to the health and regeneration of their habitats. Despite their ecological importance, Grivets face threats from habitat destruction and human-wildlife conflict. Farmers often consider them pests due to their tendency to raid crops. Classified as a species of least concern by the IUCN, CITES permits are required prior to the commencement of your hunt
