Gatherers From the Sky (clip)

Bourhan belongs to the Minang people and has trained monkeys his whole life. In the Koto clan he is considered a master. But Bourhan does not raise monkeys anymore; he is retired. Bourhan is old and weary, too weary to live with a monkey. Or so he thought until his wife received an inheritance from an old aunt. The inheritance consisted of some jewels, a few sticks of furniture and a monkey named Bobo!

This is part of the Lords of the Animals series, which presents amazing stories of human and animal coexistence from around the world. Discover the warm and trusting relationships and the ancient traditions, passed down through generations, that have permanently linked humans to animals of nearly every description.
