Inhaltsangabe

Activity time budgets is an important aspect in the daily survival of any animal. Habitat suitability of an organism is based on their activities. The blue monkey though listed as Least Concern by IUCN is facing detrimental threats in their forested habitats, therefore understanding its diurnal activities will aid in fostering conservation efforts of its habitat. In North Nandi Forest the blue monkeys spent a significant portion of their time feeding especially on canopy leaves and fruits with less time spent on the glade foraging on arthropods. Human activities such as illegal logging for fuel wood and fencing poles were widely seen as a threat to daily activity patterns of the monkey.
