Monkey Island is a remote, natural island located in Currituck Sound, North Carolina and is part of the Currituck National Wildlife Refuge. Contrary to its name, there are no monkeys on Monkey Island. It is named for the Pamunkey nation that once inhabited the area, and used the island for summer hunting.〔 〕 The island was also once the site of the Monkey Island Hunting Club, which remains standing today.〔 〕 Approximately half of the island is forested and has long supported a large colony of wading birds. It is currently the most northerly known native habitat of the Sabal minor palm.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Monkey Island Sabal Minor )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gary's Nursery )〕 The island is often visited by deer that swim from at least a mile away.〔(http://nc.audubon.org/IBAs/Coast/Monkey_Is.htm )〕 It is located in Poplar Branch Township, Currituck County, North Carolina. ==References==
