Animals: Poor Little Monkey

This poor little monkey. A few young American missionaries in town that
are doing "ethnographic research" decided to buy a monkey.

They bought it to amuse themselves. A bunch of roughly 18 year olds now can to say they owned a monkey.

They bought this little tiny baby monkey for about 5 mille CFA or
roughly 10 US dollars. They will be leaving in a few weeks. But what about the monkey? What will become of this monkey after it has been
eating human food and is no longer afraid of man?

Can it ever be a wild creature again? No much of a life for it if someone doesn't want it as a pet.

The little bugger is pretty cute though. It is tied up to a mango tree in the missionaries backyard. It jumps around and climbs on the mango
tree.
