A lovely story of Estela a little Spider Monkey born at The Melbourne Zoo, Estela was abandoned by her mother so they put baby Estela in with her Grandmother and they bonded immediately, so old granny is now bringing up Estela and she is the cutest little monkey ever, now running around jumping and climbing all over the place, last time I saw her a keeper entered the nursery where they have them and little Estella jumped up on his shoulder and watched everything he did with such curiousity, I would love to have a little monkey, a happy Estella, a happy story...

What a heartwarming story of the old granny rearing Estela when her mother abandoned her. This little baby monkey will keep her granny young for sure, she is so active! Thanks for the photos, Estela looks so cute!
