yawning, medium size, old world monkey

I spotted many Pigtailed Macaques in Erawan National Park. They were actually more of a nuisance there. They are too used to humans and could be aggressive and even steal from visitors. I kept a safe distance. Though this individual looks angry with his mouth wide open, he was actually just yawning, which he did often.
