The vervet monkey (Chlorocebus pygerythrus), or simply vervet, is an Old World monkey of the family Cercopithecidae native to Africa.
Recorded year-round
Recorded in every month, so no month is the wrong month to look. We would rather say that than invent a best time.
Curve from 6,852 national iNaturalist observations, not from one property. Single-month spikes are discarded as upload artefacts, and below 50 records we show no curve at all.

Donkerder maande is elke park se eie beste seisoen, wanneer yl bos of skaars water dit makliker maak om te kyk. 'n Waarneming is nooit gewaarborg nie.
Begeleide ritte van 'n lodge af

Elke bespreking op Spekboom ondersteun bewaring.
'n Aantekening beteken 'n gasheer het die Vervet Monkey op die eiendom of naby gesien. Dit is nooit 'n waarborg van 'n waarneming nie.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Vervet Monkey at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Sabi Sand Game Reserve, Gondwana Game Reserve, Welgevonden Game Reserve, Madikwe Game Reserve and Marakele National Park. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.
The Vervet Monkey is most recorded in KwaZulu-Natal (36% of records), Mpumalanga (21% of records), Limpopo (14% of records), based on 6 852 iNaturalist observations. 42 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Vervet Monkey on site or nearby.
The Vervet Monkey is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; Sabi Sand Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep optimal; Gondwana Game Reserve: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct; Welgevonden Game Reserve: May-Sep, dry season. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
