Monkey predators are animals that feed on monkeys for sustenance. While monkeys may have a wide variety of predators in the wild, including birds, cats, snakes, and even other monkeys, the primary predators of monkeys are humans and large cats, such as lions and leopards. Humans have been hunting monkeys for food for thousands of years, and some species of monkeys are still hunted as a food source today.
Large cats, such as lions and leopards, also prey on monkeys, typically hunting smaller species when larger prey is scarce.
