Monkey Mystified by Belly Button


Occurred on December 7, 2018 / Moscow, Ohio, USA

Info from Licensor: "This capuchin monkey came to Misfitland on June 3, 2018. He has been building trust and bonding with his new owner. He came here struggling to communicate what he was wanting and how to get his point across. He has been in training and has come leaps and bounds in the past six months. Grooming is part of the social network when it comes to monkeys and most other living beings. Louie Ray is learning that grooming can be calming and was getting the fuzz of my t-shirt after returning from a diaper change to watch some morning cartoons when he slowly made his way from my shirt to my skin. It was all normal until he found my belly button. He noticed the difference in my skin he was getting more involved in what he was doing so I started filming it. Not sure what he thought it was but he sure was interested in it."
