Monkeys as Pets

[Daz]

It seems that the keeping of monkeys as pets is on the increase, and the RSPCA for once probably have a point.

Whilst I am sure that there are responsible keepers out there, it does seem that they are not really suited to the domestic environment.

Monkeys should NOT be kept as pets under any reasons. Monkeys live in the wild and should stay in the wild. They are not used to living in cages and could be mentally damaged by being forced to live in cages or runs.
