Aviva Community Fund - We've made it to Round 3

Happy Monday everyone!  We are so excited that with your support and over 750 others, "Monkeys in our Midst" has made it to Round 3 in the Aviva Community Fund.  This is the LAST CHANCE we have to make it to the semi-finals!

If each person votes every day, we have a good chance to secure the much needed funding to help monkeys in need. 


Please, please share with friends, family, colleagues and fellow students.  This round ends November 30th at 12:00PM.

Pockets, our resident Artiste!!!!!

Pockets is getting ready for a painting session! He has a show coming up, so he must get up early to start creating those masterpieces!
Sometimes the artist gets a better effect using a cloth rather than hands or feet or tail!
Pockets appears to check out the colour that Steph has offered him...perhaps he is not in a red mood today????
Lots of people get involved in Pockets' artistic efforts! And he loves the attention!
"This is my magnificent tail", says Pockets Capuchin. It can be used as a rope, a hand, or even a paintbrush!

Training Mr. Jenkins


Erica has been working with one of our Spider monkeys - Mr. Jenkins. She is trying to get him to be more gentle in his interactions with people. Instead of the grabbing and pulling that he has done for years, he is beginning to reach out and hold hands without the pull and pinch we have come to expect! Well done, Erica and Jenks!!!
