Indian Monkeys Killed, 10-Day-Old Baby Monkey Homeless, Recognizes Dog as Mother

In China, monkeys are explicitly prohibited from being hunted, and monkeys are very popular due to their cute appearance. However, the fate of monkeys is not the same in other countries. According to a report by 'The Mirror' on March 18, an Indian man, Prakash Badal, captured a funny scene on the street: a little monkey snuggled beside a dog, as if the dog was its mother.

Last year, the Himachal Pradesh state of India announced that monkeys were pests, allowing the killing of monkeys in specific areas. Therefore, a female monkey was killed on the spot for chewing and damaging crops. And its baby monkey, which was only 10 days old, died because it lost its mother. But soon it found a new mother, which is this dog.

According to Prakash Badal, who took the photo, this dog is now pregnant, so it should understand the importance of a mother. Fortunately, the dog and the little monkey get along very well, no matter whether the little monkey climbs onto its back or curls up in its lap, and allows it to ride on its neck and scratch its fleas. The little monkey seems to really regard this dog as its mother.
