Makaku, Macaque, Macaca, Macaquo are words which refer to the English word Monkey. In 1960 the term settled in Portuguese as macaco, and by 1680 it appeared in French as macaque. Let us imagine a person by the name of Mr. Makaku. In Japanese, one can address Mr. Makaku in many ways. In Japanese Keigo, if one does not really know Mr. Makaku, one would offend Mr. Makaku by simply calling him Makaku. In Japan, to call a stranger by name without an honorific implies that you believe the stranger to be inferior in status to you, and is highly insulting. One could use the expression Makaku-shi, which is used to express respect for a professional qualification. This is a Sonkeigo expression. Hence the name, Makakushi. Makakushi was made In memory of the famous fighting monkey, Jacko Maccacco, of Westminister Pit 1800.

Lion-tailed Macaques(Macaca silenus) at Melbourne Zoo / Lion-tailed Macaques live in Southwest India in pockets of evergreen forests, called sholas, in the Western Ghats range. They live at elevations between 2,000 and 3,500 feet. According to the IUCN, only approximately 2,500 of these animals live scattered over several areas in Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. The Lion-tailed Macaque ranks among the rarest and most threatened primates. Their range has become increasingly isolated and fragmented by the spread of agriculture and tea, coffee, teak and cinchona, construction of water reservoirs for irrigation and power generation, and human settlements to support such activities. They don’t live, feed or travel through plantations. Destruction of their habitat and the fact that they avoid human proximity, has led to the drastic decrease of their population. / The lion-tailed macaque is listed as endangered on the World Conservation Union’s (IUCN’s) Red List of Threatened Animals. / Wikipedia / D300- 18-200mm ED VR Nikkor lens / 1/250s, f/5.3, ISO:400, 95mm
