I can’t stand animals in cages / enclosures! Wild animals should be in the wild! Poor, poor monkeys…

  I agree… we have enough miscreants in the world who could volunteer for testing for privileges rather than innocent animals.. I suppose that would be considered non PC!!! ♥

Nice to see, that they did get outside, while they live Sally 😀
Animals deserve their freedom too, even if I do see, why some of the better zoo’s do a good job too.

  Sometimes their natural environment can be very dangerous and so many are close to extinction.. I did a documentary at Monkey World in Dorset and so many were rescued from private zoos, laboratories and also to help build up numbers.. They are all open spaces with lots of enrichment and they do an amazing job.. hugsx

It’s very telling that it takes them a while to even understand what they’re seeing.
