Adopt Our Baby Monkeys: Help Protect All Primates
23rd Jun 2022
This month, we were very happy to announce the arrival of SIX baby Barbary macaque monkeys so far in 2022 here in Trentham. Every birth that we have at the Monkey Forest is a small win for the species, as sadly, there are currently fewer than 8,000 Barbary macaques left in the wild.
