Most baby monkeys are born with their eyes open and are able to cling to their mother for transportation and protection. In some species, like baboons, babies may be unable to adhere quite so tightly and rely on the family group or troop to carry them.
Baby macaques may stay close to their mothers for a year or more while they learn how to find food and interact with the other members of the group. While they can become independent quickly in locomotion, it takes time for them to learn behaviors specific to their environment.
