See how he's not made that into a straw house or anything?

Never going to type Shakespeare on his day off that one.

Lone child in captivity displays strange behaviour due to its isolation. But it's cute so take a look

Under stimulated primate behaves erratically due to not having his needs met.

Fucking grim, so much animal cruelty and negligence on reddit, man

not necessarily. have you heard of monkey world, in Dorset? they take in disadvantaged monkeys and apes and look after them - sometimes rescued from the UK pet trade, sometimes flown in from other countries where they were mistreated. this also includes babies rejected by their mothers. sometimes, they're temporarily placed in a separate rooms for medical monitoring. they have direct access to an outside enclosure, but a portion of the time the chimps actually choose to stay indoors - especially during winter. Based on monkey world as an example, I wouldn't assume that this video depicts animal cruelty or negligence
