Why do monkeys eat lice ?
It’s not lice that monkeys pick out of each others hair, but salt particles that come about from their dried sweat. This practice of grooming is a source of electrolytes for the monkeys as well as a way of social bonding. Maybe humans should try it some time!

So bizarre yet endearing. I love these precious creatures so much

[@Marvin-dg8vj]

The lice or the baboons?

[@nogunk147]

Im sure the same reason humans groom each others hair or treat each others wounds/illness. To maintain a bond in the community and keep each other healthy 😁

Win-Win for both participants.

[@kentallard8852]

Why? The grooming helps maintain cohesion in the troop as well as keeping everyone healthy and clean, and also the insects are a good source of protein.

Насекомых с шерсти своих сородичей обезьяны не едят! Их интересуют кристалики соли, корочки кожи и подобное...
