Monkeys are so adaptable that - like us - they are able to live almost anywhere. In south east Asia, mangrove leaves look unappetising, but there is one monkey that has learned to exploit the environment - the proboscis monkey. The male's nose is especially huge and apparently irresistible to the opposite sex. Good looks are important if you want to make an impression in a large group. Proboscis monkeys eat large amounts of tough mangrove leaves. Just like cows, they have special bacteria to digest their food by fermentation. This makes them look permanently bloated.
