“Attacking Howler Monkey”. Due to a major tropical rainstorm my wife and I were forced to stay overnight in a Howler Monkey Rescue center in Panama. I used the time to explore the area and to take photos of the monkeys. Just after the rain finally stopped, I ran into this monkey that tried to mock attack me. I quickly took a couple of photos before retreating to a (more) safe distance. (Photo and caption by Christian Mueller-Planitz/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

This holiday coincides with Columbus Day which commemorates Christopher Columbus landing in America in 1492. But rather than celebrating the discovery of the Americas, the Nicaraguans observe Indigenous Resistance Day to celebrate the bravery of the indigenous population in the fight against the Spanish conquistadors.
