The baby macaque in our care are bathed in plain, lukewarm water at regular intervals. Not only does it ensure proper hygiene, it also helps avoid ectoparasites. Additionally, the baby macaques sleep really well after a warm bath. Good sleep is crucial for proper rehabilitation. . . . . . #babymonkey #monkey #bathtime #cute #cutebabies #adorable #macaquerehabilitation #wildlife #urbanwildlife #pfa #pfabengaluru #pfawildlifehospital #rescue #wildliferescue #widlifeconservation | PfA Wildlife Hosp

In recognition of International Macaque Week, we are calling attention to the cruelty long-tailed macaques face right here in Canada. In the wild, long-tailed macaques live in tight-knit family groups. Mothers nurse and carry their babies for months. Older siblings play and teach the young. They groom one another to show affection, resolve conflict, and maintain the bonds that keep their group together. They form communities. But Canada has been complicit in the destruction of these communities
