Recently, at the park's Xueyu Cave scenic spot, the adorable macaque twins — a baby boy and a baby girl — were spotted clinging tightly to their mother as she navigated the treetops and cliffs in the park among their troop.

The macaque, listed as a second-level protected species in China, mainly inhabits rocky cliffs, stream valleys or mountains along riverbanks. The precious species often live in groups — from dozens to hundreds.
