Where did this monkey come from?
Director Chen of the Wildlife Shelter and Rescue Center introduced: "Through observation, we judged that this is an adult macaque.
There is no distribution of macaques in the wild in the Nanjing area, and its source cannot be known and confirmed. I think monkeys appear in the city repeatedly, so these monkeys may have been artificially raised. We will have to evaluate these again. ”
Director Chen said that at present, most of the animal rescue received by the rescue center is wild birds, and there have been cases of small monkeys raised as pets being sent to the rescue center for rescue in the past.
