Chiang Mai Zoo in Thailand ----- Monkey Baby

in photography •  7 years ago 

I was sad to see this little guy in a small cage at the Chiang Mai Zoo and asked the people that seemed to be taking care of him why he was in such a small cage. I was told that his mother had died and they could not find another monkey to care for him so they needed to keep him around them all the time. I know nothing about raising monkeys so I had to take their word for it.
Such a cute little guy

I hope he did well and was eventually released into a larger Zoo area.

He's still lucky to be taken care of.
I think they will be good to him...

I think so also

I'm not a fan of Zoos personally, unless the animal is protected and there is an attempt to save the species. I've seen some very pi$$ed off looking owls in cages, and have no plans to ever visit a Zoo again.

I can understand that

Really cute! Sorry for his mother! I think if he's grown up and be strength enough, he would be released to nature or at least in a larger area! Good luck to him!

Hope he is at least in a larger area

That's for sure! ;)
