You actually think you’re intelligent and funny don’t you?

@@lambear8216 Wel I did work in Asia including PRC as an Engineer. I worked around a lot of macaques. My colleagues and I adopted a number of infant monkeys at Buddhist monasteries. I think our group supported bout 20 Rhesus macaque in or near Chengdu China. later we supported another almost 40 in Vietnam. They were also at a Buddhist sanctuary. It cost about 20 USD an infant to adopt in China. We paid Less to support 40 at Buddhist Temple 12 miles south of Saigon, it is still called Saigon by the locals. The macaques in Vietnam were Long tail, Pig tail and hybrids of the two. Of course we didn't take the infants home . They are raised by Monks and integrated into monkey groups after they are about 16 months. Old. air iss not unusual to find infants that have been abandoned. Often people take them to a shelter when they find them. others take them to a street market and sell them. Most of the monkeys you see on youtube are bought at markets. Yes it is illegal for health reasons but it happens a lot. The money paid is used to take care of the infants. Infants don't live more that a day or two at the most after abandoned. The hope is to keep the ones that live out of the monkey trade. Being a pet isn't the worst thing that can happen it is being sold to a research Lab in Europe or the US.
