Dark Days in Monkey City is an Animal Planet documentary about the lives of wild Toque Macaques in Sri Lanka. In the tradition of Meerkat Manor it follows the stories of individual primates, but differs from earlier shows by adding special effects and animation.
Unlike anything ever seen on television before, Dark Days introduces the most shocking cast of characters – filled with tyrants, heroes, underdogs and outlaws. With graphic-novel style animation, live-action footage and narration by award winning actor John Rhys- Davies, the drama between two warring tribes of macaques living in the heart of Sri Lanka is captured in all its action packed, exhilarating adventure.
