Andaman Monkey Jenny joins the Vigilant crew on Port Blair
A newly discovered Andaman monkey, Jenny, presented to the Zoological Society by Captain Brown, serves aboard Her Majesty's Vigilant at Port Blair. Jenny, 8 or 9 years old, resembles a pig-tailed macaque but with a distinctive V shaped hair pattern. She is highly intelligent, walks upright, carries items, feeds a ship chicken, and even smokes a pipe, making her a notable curiosity from the Gulf of Bengal.
