Abstract

Abstract: In this paper,the relatipnship between feeding habits of Macaca mulatta and types of vegetation in the forests is investigated with follow track survey method. The results show that Macaca mulatta selects seasonal or secondary rain forest as its main food-seeking place.Its feeding habits are directly affected by the geographic distribution and species number of plants in the habitats. The frequency of seeking definite parts of plants by Macaca mulatta varies with the growing stages of plants.

Key words: Macaca mulatta, Feeding habits, Tropical, subtropical forests
