Mar. 27 Chimpanzee takes care of a Capuchin Monkey: Chimpanzee Happy living in the zoo of Duisburg/West Germany is a very kind substitute fathers. After the capuchin monkey Taoo was repudiated by its own mother, the two year old chimpanzee took care of the orphan. Happy doesn't only keep solicitously an eye on this little one and rock it to sleep, but he also gives the little monkey baby the feeding bottle (our picture), so it will become a grown up Capuchin, soon. This kind of behaviour is very extraordinary. Normally, male monkeys don't treat the babies gently, above all when it isn't the own race
