Are there monkeys on Nevis?

African green, or “vervet” monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) have lived on St. Kitts & Nevis for over 300 years. Estimates vary widely, but today there are thousands of free-roaming monkeys on the islands. The monkeys live in mountain forests, where they feed off leaves, flowers, berries, fruit and insects.
