Peru Isla de los Monos
This photo was taken at a monkey rescue, which can be visited from Iquitos or the jungle tour. They saved the monkeys from cruelty and prepare them to live in the jungle.
Although this seemed like a genuine rescue center, I had my doubts because there was a small zoo right next to this place.

Photography Tips
I used a telezoom lens (Tamron 70-180mm F2.8 on Sony A6500) to get really close to the animals without disturbing them to much and avoid photographing other tourists in my shot.
