Funniest-Faced Monkeys


Proboscis" is the scientific term for certain mammals' noses. The shnoz on the proboscis monkey is certainly hard to miss. Noses on males can exceed 4 inches in length, hanging lower than the mouth.
Mittermeier, Rylands and Wilson explained that "their long nose is used as a resonating chamber for its loud honking calls." http://movetofun.blogspot.com/
