Ex pet, he was released by his owner, who obviously no longer wanted him, in the area of our center. Still used to humans feeding him, he was stealing from the local villagers and generally making a nuisance of himself, before we managed to trap him. He now lives with Tilly and Sundance, another ex pet male macaque.

The Primate Trust was founded by Jo and John Hicks (the same founders of IAR) it provides long term care to orphaned, abused and injured primates. This work is essential due to the loss of natural habitat, human conflict causing an increasing number of injured and orphaned monkeys. Other monkeys are rescued for being illegally kept as pets and for begging, often in appalling conditions.
