Caption

YeHong, a 13-year-old wild female Tibetan macaque, with her two offspring (juvenile and infant siblings) at the Valley of the Wild Monkeys in Mt. Huangshan in the Anhui Province of China. Tibetan macaques form strong relationships with their female relatives to maintain strict matrilineal social order and compete for resources.
