I visited Monkey World this time last year http://www.flickr.com/photos/the_hun...7627578751625/

and although I too hate captive animals (in spite of owning a Lovebird, a Willow-the-dog and until Tuesday a Cornsnake...RIP, Barley) my opinion was changed when the keeper said *Because of hunting for 'medicines' this enclosure contains a third of the entire world population of this monkey...* my attitude changed.
