Monkey

Many blame us as we keep the monkey - chained in our compound. The truth is that it is not our monkey. Jeff (pic) left him here - chained him to the post in our compound - on 1st Sept 2006. Not even gave us the key for the padlock to his neck even. Never said a word about how to feed him etc. The monkey flew from KL and just like that, abandoned in our place.

Few weeks after that he managed to break the chain and decided he did not want to leave the place but yet, monkey is always a monkey, broke everything. The glasses, the lamp, TV, speakers, etc. Called Jeff, he refused to answer. Called wifdlife department, they just want to shoot him. Zack hesitated and after by-then Prakash's staff caught him and chained him again.

He is smart and knows how to open the chains and yet he decides to stay with us. The only reason he is being in chains as he will smash and steal everything shining.

So, we just totally do not know what to do with him. Can't release him to the wild as he will even die more miserably as the other monkey tribes will kill him. (Monkey is tribal animal that allows one male in a group hence he cannot survive alone. Worst, he belongs to Beruk species while in Langkawi is Macaque and Lutung. So, yeah, if we really want to "free" him, we rather put him to sleep than release him to the wild. All other monkeys will beat him to death.)

For, now, he seems quite happy and content in his house that Zack built. Again, he is only 4 years and he can survive til 60 over. So, still wonder whether we really make a good decision by letting him stay here than just let the wildlife department shoot him.

Anyway, anybody who can locate the owner, please tell him to retrieve the monkey as he miserably misses him.
