Monkey World - Primate Care

Primate Care

Monkey World covers 65 acres (26.30 ha) of park and within this enormous sanctuary are over 208 individual apes and monkeys which make up the primates living in it. To ensure that all the primates receive their day-to-day care is a dedicated team of people working and caring for them known as the Primate Care Staff. These people have hands-on experience in caring for wild animals and are effectively trained to know how to not only feed the animals but to rehabilitate them to give them a better life. The care of each primate depends on the species and its specific diet and life requirements.

Famous quotes containing the word care:

    It’s only too easy to idealise a mother’s job. We know well that every job has its frustrations and its boring routines and its times of being the last thing anyone would choose to do. Well, why shouldn’t the care of babies and children be thought of that way too?
    D.W. Winnicott (20th century)
