In addition to hunting and poaching, there is a business of baby monkeys. Young animals are not caught to be eaten but to be sold on markets. The babies monkeys are sold as "pet" but the great apes are not suited to this kind of life. You should know, that to capture a baby, it's often his entire family who is decimated. Indeed, adults protect their offspring and hinder the capture of babies, so they are shot. Unfortunately, separated from their mothers, their chances of survival are very low because they are extremely fragile, beaten and injured in the capture, isolated from their peers, without adequate food .. Growing up, the monkey becomes less and less "interesting" and docile. It can becomes dangerous so he is destroyed or locked in a cage to be exhibited ...
The monkey trade is a very lucrative and flourishing business between several countries, like Morocco, Malaysia, Cameroon, and Europe. Now you can even buy monkeys on the internet.
