Monkey Jungle, Wildlife park in South Miami-Dade County, United States.

Monkey Jungle is a 30-acre primatarium and zoological park in South Miami, Florida, where over 300 primates live in semi-natural habitats. Visitors walk through the park on a caged walkway while monkeys roam freely, and the grounds include a Southeast Asian Wild Monkey Pool & Trail, the Cameroon Gorilla Forest, and the Amazonian Rainforest.

Joseph DuMond founded Monkey Jungle in 1933, releasing six Java macaques into a subtropical forest to study them. When government funding failed, he opened the site to the public. Because the territorial monkeys attacked visitors, DuMond caged the guests instead, creating the park's signature walkway. A 1994 dig led by archaeologist Robert S. Carr uncovered fossils over 10,000 years old, including American lion, dire wolf, Pleistocene horse and camel.

The park's tagline, "Where humans are caged and monkeys run wild!", describes its inverted design: visitors walk through caged tunnels while Java macaques roam free. The Wild Monkey Swimming Pool & Trail, home to the original 1933 macaques, hosts presentations at 10:00 am, 12:15 pm, 2:30 pm and 4:30 pm, where the monkeys may dive into the pond for snacks.

Visitors walk through the park on a caged walkway while primates roam semi-freely, so keep hands inside and follow keeper instructions. Scheduled tours run three times a day, but self-guided tours are also possible. The terrain is mostly flat, and the park is not accredited by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums.

A 1994 dig led by archaeologist Robert S. Carr uncovered fossils over 10,000 years old in sinkholes on the property, among them the American lion, dire wolf, Pleistocene horse and camel — one of Florida's largest such finds.
