Image 14. Head of quarantine Killi MATUTE, is part of two persons caring for the newly rescued baby Preuss monkey. Three-times a day, a keeper spends 1h30 in a large cage with the baby to feed him special milk and bananas and to stimulate curiosity, foraging behaviour and play, and restore health and behaviour. Image 15. Rehabilitation of the baby Preuss monkey includes also natural structural enrichment. Branches and a floor covered with leaves mimic a natural environment, where the baby can climb, jump, forage, and handle twigs, thus acquiring strength, balance and coordination, under the reassuring supervision of his keeper.
