Moor macaque Moor macaque The moor macaque ("Macaca maura") is a macaque with brown/black body fur with a pale rump patch and pink bare skin on the rump. It is about 50-58.5 cm long, and eats figs, bamboo seeds, buds, sprouts, invertebrates and cereals in tropical rainforests. It is sometimes called "dog-ape" because of its dog-like muzzle, although it's no more closely related to apes than any other Old World monkey is. It's endemic to the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia. The moor macaque is threatened mostly due to habitat loss from an expanding human population and deforestation to increase agricultural land
Crab-eating macaque and "M. f. condorensis" is vulnerable. All other subspecies are listed as data deficient and need further study; although recent work is showing "M. f. aurea" and "M. f. karimondjawae" need increased protection. One concern for conservation is, in areas where "M. fascicularis" is not native, their populations need to be monitored and managed to reduce their impact on native flora and fauna. The genome of the crab-eating macaque has been sequenced. On 24 January 2018, scientists in China reported in the journal "Cell" the creation of two crab-eating macaque clones, named "Zhong Zhong and Hua Hua", using the complex
