Monkey

The monkey is from Majora's Mask, and it can be found in the Woods of Mystery. He guides you through the correct passages and finally to the injured witch whom you have to heal with a special red potion obtained from the other witch. The Monkey is then caught in the Deku Palace as a suspect of kidnapping the Deku Princess. You help him out of his punishment by rescuing the Princess. Monkeys have also been seen in A Link to the Past and Link's Awakening, in the form of Kiki the Monkey. Monkeys play a very important role in the first dungeon of Twilight Princess. To complete the dungeon you most rescue all of the captured monkeys. The monkeys you set free will help you continue to the next area. The leader, or chief of the monkeys occupying the Faron Woods is a large baboon known as Ook. He was taken control of by a parisitic arachnid just before the beginning of Twilight Princess. He somehow obtained the Gale Boomerang, and is the miniboss of the Forest Temple. Once defeated, the Gale Boomerang is added to Link's inventory, and Ook goes back to his normal self. He also helps you defeat the dungeon's boss later on. The monkeys in Twilight Princess appear to be very intelligent, leading Link through the Forest Temple as though they are of human intelligence. They are friendly towards humans, except under the direction of the possessed Ook, who directs them to steal from and torment the villagers of Ordon, until he is freed from his spider-like tormentor. The monkey with a flower seems to be 2nd in command and helps Link through the swamp.
