I propose the “Goodall Scale” for primate shyness:

10 … Nocturnal Amazonian primate unknown to Western science and the hunters of the native tribes of the area, only sighted during the depths of the Ayuhaska trips of the native shamans. And then they run away.

0 …. The macaques in the monkey forest in Ubud, Bali. They will climb on your back, go trough your pockets and backpacks for food, play with your hair and pull on your trousers in their quest for bananas.
