Howwwwl

I love some of these lines from that site.

The howler monkey to the right is an adult male. He has a big saggy chin that functions as a "resonating" chamber so he can howl. The howls can be heard for several miles . . .

They communicate to defend their territories . . .

By the way, maybe that mom hauling the baby around explains the "that's a foul" vs "come on let -em play" phenomenon. It's simply intergenrational rivalry rearing it's head in the howler community. Which also means when you hear this there's a real mother on the bench.
