Monkey baby


Today was my last full day at Moholoholo and I got the best treat ever. This is a baby vervet monkey, Neo, that the centre is taking care of until it can be transferred to a vervet monkey sanctuary near by. I got to monkey-sit for a about an hour or so and it was awesome. Admittedly it's not easy to watch a monkey but I did my best to be a comfortable climbing structure and made sure it didn't get trampled by Dela the rhino or jump into the wild dogs camp. I used a sling to keep him in what I called the 'taco' but it was much easier when he finally went for a nap. Tomorrow I head to Hoedspruit and then back home...
