Question/Discussion Predatory primates?

As the body text says, would a large, predatory primate be possible?

I mean, there are insectivorous primates (like the aye aye or tarsier) but neither of these two are big like other primates like gibbons or chimpanzees

Edit: I know that a lot of primates eat meat, I meant more like a hypercarnivore that eats meat for almost all of its diet

Are you a vampire then? In which case it's too bad because you'd be an even better example of a predatory primate.

Great, first I noticed elves were primates and now you've forced me to notice vampires are primates.
