The Mandrill is a mid-sized African primate. It is an adoptable animal in Wildlife Park 2 and Wildlife Park 3.
Description[]
Weighing up to 37kg (82lbs), the mandrill is the world's largest monkey. Males are up to twice the size of females and have more vivid colorings. Its hairless face has an elongated muzzle with distinctive characteristics such as a red stripe down the middle and protruding blue ridges on the sides. It also has red nostrils and lips, a yellow beard and white tuffs. The coloration of the animal is more pronounced in dominant adult males. Unlike many monkeys, mandrills spend most of their time on the ground.
Mandrills are native to the rainforests of Western Africa and live in large groups known as "hordes", which can include over 1000 animals. A horde typically consists of smaller sub-groups, each led by a dominant male. They are omnivorous, with a preference for fruits, but will also eat other vegetation, fungus, invertebrates and occasionally small vertebrates. As with many rainforest animals, mandrills are threatened due to deforestation and are considered "vulnerable".

| “ | Latin name: Lat. name: Mandrillus sphinx. The conspicuously colored Mandrill, with a length of maximum 81 cm, is the largest living primate. Its face with the red nose stemming from the well-circulated epidermis, and the blue bone structure is a typical characteristic. The mandrill's coat is dappled olive-green, mixed pink, blue and white at the buttocks, with a yellow-brown beard. The Mandrill, meaning ""the Forest Devil"" in the language of the Guinean natives, lives in central West Africa near the equator and inhabits huge rain forests. The limbs of the mandrill are evenly long and therefore suited to a life on the ground. He only climbs trees at night for protection. Groups of up to 50 animals, usually 20 animals, are led by a dominant male. Despite their large canines, mandrills feed off small animals such as spiders, snails and insects, as well as grasses, herbs and fruit. Due to agriculture and hunting, the mandrill population is steadily decreasing. | ” |
