📍 Panama Canal


Panamanian White-faced Capuchin (Cebus imitator)

One of the most intelligent New World monkeys, known for using tools and washing food — and for boldly raiding boats and picnic sites along the canal.

A year-round resident of Central American forests from Honduras to Panama, these capuchins thrive in the lush vegetation bordering the Panama Canal and are among the most frequently spotted primates by transiting boaters.
