A vervet monkey lies on its back in a cage, its fur light gray with white underparts. The monkey's face is dark, with a light muzzle. Its belly is exposed, revealing bright blue skin around its genitals and a red scrotum. One of its hind legs is bent, with its paw resting on a metal bar. Its front limbs are also visible, one resting near its head and the other extending downwards. The cage is made of wire mesh, with rusty metal bars. The background is blurred, but suggests an outdoor setting with some greenery and what appears to be a tree trunk. There are some red and white tags visible hanging from the cage in the upper left corner. The overall impression is of an animal in captivity. The context of Jos, Nigeria suggests this may be a zoo or wildlife sanctuary. The lighting suggests it is daytime.
