Illegally-Owned Monkey Captured after Biting Teen

in Animal News

Last week, a monkey wearing a diaper was spotted wandering around a Washington County, Utah neighborhood. When a teenager approached the monkey to take a photo, the monkey bit his finger. Because it’s illegal to keep monkeys as pets in Utah, the animal is likely to be rehomed to a sanctuary or to a private owner in another state.
