Had a trip to the zoo today with @nickspics. After a month of colour, I decided to post a monotone today. I thought it also helped to portray the sadness this photo makes me feel. Mum looks like she has the weight of the world on her shoulders
She does look very subdued, I’m not a big fan of zoos & I’ve been round a few, I know the animals are so well looked after & zoos are so much nicer than they used to be….this monkey has most likely been born in a zoo & know no different…perhaps she finding motherhood hard work…don’t we all! Fave.
@happypat I have similar feelings Pat. I console myself that there are some good breeding programmes happening in zoos. This is Hamilton zoo, and they have a great record for their white rhino breeding. The rate species are disappearing in the wild, zoos may be the only safe environment left soon
