Other times the family just sit and watch you - they seem to be OK just studying humans.

Know the type of monkey you mean Air - thats one of the types of tame monkeys I know of and always remember the very first time meeting her and shaking hands - very delicate grip and not what you'd expect and very affectionate (Never knew what to expect) That monkey was reared by a biologist - it's mother was killed in an accident when it was very young and it would not be able to fend for itself in the wild.
