The Ninja Monkey is a monkey that made its first appearance in Bloons TD 5, appearing in every Bloons game, except Bloons Adventure Time TD, released since. Its purpose as a base tower is having default camo detection making it useful against early Camo Rounds. In tower defense games, it throws shurikens that pop a few bloons each. In Bloons Pop!, it glides through the air swiping at bloons with karate moves.
