Monkey

A generalized nonhuman primate shown in a simple scientific illustration, simplified naturalistic, or clipart style, depicted in side view or slight profile as a monkey- or ape-like mammal. It has a rounded or relatively large skull, short snout, forward-facing eyes, and a recognizable expressive primate face. The body is lean to compact and covered in short brown or gray fur, often with a lighter face and underside. Limbs are relatively long and flexible with mobile shoulders, moderately long arms and legs, and grasping hands and feet with distinct digits. The animal may be posed seated, crouched, perched, standing, or slightly upright-leaning, emphasizing characteristic primate posture and dexterous extremities. The silhouette may suggest either a monkey or an ape, with a tail that may be long or absent depending on type.
