Monkey Business.


Today I tagged along with Adrienne and Jeff to the Monkey Park on the island. From the outside it looked pretty sketchy; not quite as bad as the Acadia Zoo in Maine, but sketchy none the less. We bought bags of monkey food and entered this fenced in area filled with monkeys. I saw some crawl on people's shoulders and so wish one would have gone on mine. I fed them and they took the food right out of my hand! This little guy was my favorite. He moved so fast I kept getting blurry pictures but finally got one.

In this same pen was this sloth. He was so slow when I handed him food it took him forever to react and take it from me. He was awesome though!

This one was super fat! He looked like he had a huge beer gut; probably from sitting all day and being overfed by all the visitors. I helped the cause and gave him a crouton.

These next little ones freaked me out! As you can see the one on the right is tilting his head. He was staring me down and doing that as if he was intently getting a good look. I had to run away because he was scaring me! I have so many pictures I could go one forever! But here is one more.

There were some random filler pens filled to the brim with guinea pigs! It cracked me up and I probably threw in half my bag of food to feed this huge mass of pigs!

Um, guinea pigs? Do not below in a zoo.
