Sweet Baby

~EXPLORE!~

 

Meet Keylani (not sure of spelling...pronounced Key-Lonnie). She's a capuchin monkey, one of the most intelligent New World monkeys. Sometimes used as service animals ( to help those with disabilities) and better known for being "organ grinders". She was born about 3 weeks ago and fell from her mother's back. Mom decided not to take care of her after that (it was her first baby and possibly didn't really know how to care for her), so she is being hand fed and taken care of by the zoo director at the "Little River Zoo" in Norman OK. She was so sweet and was clinging on to the back of a fuzzy teddy bear, just like she would do with her mama.
