A New baby Monkey

08.July.06

I haven’t been to the Zoo to see animals for a quiet long time. Coincidently, one of my friend celebrated her daughter 's birthday on yesterday and asked me to participate their activity which was go to the zoo near around my house for having some fun. Surely I promised.

Though the zoo isn’t very big one, there are various larks, animals are there attracted children or family to see, e.g. Robin, Swallow, Pigeon, Bears, Goat…etc. While we were strolling in the zoo, my friend’s daughter suddenly shouted to her mother, “Hey, Mom, come over here! You see that baby monkey, it’s cute, it has gold fur.!!!”.




AH..there was a newly born baby monkey in this Zoo, it’s a type of Monkey calls Francoisi’ Leaf Monkey. That baby girl monkey was born in May this year, it has five family members (included her parents), one brother is 3.5 years and a sister in 2 years. Their parents were donated to here from GuangXi Province of MainLand China in June 2000.

According to the Zoo Keeper' s explanation, this kind little monkey has gold fur of it' s whole body when it was born, then will peel off their golden fur into black fur little by little.
Interestingly, you can see it' s long long tail which is longer than it' s slim body. A tuft of hair upstanding on it’s head, a pinch of white hair on it’s cheek. WHAT A LOVELY MONKEY.


I heard people said this sometimes: “If someone was born in the year of Monkey, he/she has a very clever, nimble character.” I do believe it, because some friends around me, they are in this character. How about you?

Hmm...

This monkey is born a punk rocker, but it mellows out as it gets older!

Thanks for sharing, Pink Panther!
