Category:Bossy's troop

Bossy's troop, sometimes referred to by AM as "Our Gang", is a troop headed by the matriarch Bossy. AM focused on this troop early in his documentation, because it had the entertaining and photogenic baby monkeys Knitty and Dopey. That's why there are disproportionately more monkeys documented for this troop than any other.

Bossy's troop has gone through several male alphas in the past few years. Recently, alpha male Grandee lost the post and disappeared soon afterwards. Bossy's son Barry seems to have been accepted by his mother as the new alpha, but AM speculates this is an interim position until a better candidate (likely an outsider) can be found.

Almost all monkeys in Bossy's troop have names that end with the letter Y. The only exceptions are Grandee (who is in the troop despite not adhering to the naming convention) and Stumpy (who has never been in the troop despite adhering to the naming convention).
