Grooming the Monkey

When you’ve had a hard morning climbing branches and swinging from tree to tree, what better way to relax than have your mother run her fingers through your fur and pick out the ticks and insects.

Normally, I don’t like monkeys, but I have to admit that this one is cute.

It looks like the mouth was just stuck onto the fur. How did you find the conditions and the animals were in and their environment?
