Macaque baby
A 4 months old male macaque monkey on his way back from the vet.
Please note that this wild animal is not held captive. As macaques easily adapt to human-built environments, he lives with his whole group of approx. 30 on a non-fenced (would a fence help very much? :-) farm near Calodyne in the North of Mauritius and is used to social contact with humans on the farm and even in town. He was brought to the vet in the next bigger town, because he had an injury at his tailbone.
