Dang, this is like watching parkour. I expect the camera to pan over and Daniel Craig fighting someone.

What an amazing video

@Ceerads

People who cite animals as being kinder or “purer” than humans should remember that animals, especially other primates, can indeed be cruel to each other.

@cardboardbox3787

The life within these small groups of animals is incredible and so crazy.
