Apes Den Apes Den No Data

Description


Located about half way down the rock, and accessible either by a stiff climb or it's own stop on the cable car (not during summers) the Apes den is home to some of the Barbary Macaques that call the rock home. Early in the morning they gather as around half their daily requirement of food is put out for them (they are expected to forage for the rest and visitors MUST NOT feed them). You can see the hierarchy of the family groups including multiple generations, depending on the time of year you may see very young macaques clinging to their mothers back.
