Physical
One adaptation of the Capuchin Monkey is there long tails. There tails are about the length of their body. Without their tails, they wouldn't be able to climb trees as well. They kind of use there tail as a fifth limb.
They also developed strong jaws, this helps them eat big fruits. Without this adaptation, they might not have enough food.
They use tools to to get there food. They use rocks to break open nuts

Behavioral
Capuchin Monkeys are diurnal. That means they are asleep at night and awake during the day, they also sleep in the tops in trees. Both of these allow them to be safe from hunting predators at night.
Males protect the territory. When a large predator is near, they defend the territory by warning the rest of the group. They howl, bark and snarl. The rest of the group will then flee the area.
