Pet Monkeys...Shame

There is something irresistible about an infant monkey - they appear so sweet and helpless, and seem so much like a human infant in many ways. However, those sweet babies grow up into difficult adults, and as a general rule adult monkeys do not make good pets. Their intelligence makes them special, but ultimately makes them a very challenging pet. images.jpg Commitment: Taking on a pet monkey is a long term commitment. A well cared for monkey can live anywhere from 20-40 years, and needs your full commitment throughout their lives. A pet monkey cannot do without your attention when life gets busy or circumstances change. Medical Issues: A wide range of diseases can be passed from monkeys to humans. Monkeys are also susceptible to a variety of illnesses of humans, which can be devastating for the monkey. Aggression: The sweet dependent baby monkey will eventually grow up, and become the wild animal it was meant to be. Unfortunately, raising a monkey around humans doesn't change the wild nature of monkey, and in fact depriving a pet monkey of normal social relationships with other monkeys can create behavior problems and neuroses. Pet monkeys also have a tendency to bite. They have different personalities so one cannot generalize, but some monkeys will be very aggressive, and others will be more docile. Nevertheless, monkeys are unpredictable and may turn aggressively on anyone, including the person to whom they are the closest.self 38310391.jpg csmkney.jpg african-monkey.jpg toothless.jpg petmonkeybite.jpg miabite.jpg By eating our food and especially sweets a lot of monkeys developed diabities...
