  • @interfan63 Your question made me wonder as well. Google, "Wisconsin National Primate Research Center"

  • stupid monkeys fucking dumb looking furry creatures

  • That monkey's Vet is more knowledgeable than my own doctor.

  • This made me wonder ,and if you please answer . Do monkeys have human type genetic disorders like color-blindness or down syndrome ?

  • @AK74inCali Don't say this too loud, some politicians may listen toy ou and cut funding for zoos. After all, they are educational (you may learn something after a visit), rather low cost entertainment and not allowing the richer to get even more rich (so can't be a good business). Best to get people on the couch looking a zombie-making TV programs.

  • Well, thank goodness an orangutan gets healthcare. It's not like we have American children that need cardiac ultrasounds. It's all about the cute sick monkey in the cage, right?

  • I just started towatch this video and all I can say is. We had better start treating everything like we would treat ourselves. Because this sends a ripple effect to the universe on how you see and love everything. In my opinion, this is why outside intervention was attracted. i.e. This is how you want to be treated in the universe. I will not abuse, and do not want to be abused. Do you get it?

  • @walk4trot2canter3 Me too :3

  • How would those women like to be caged...
