Eight Black-Capped Capuchin Monkeys Arrive at Bannerghatta Zoo

Bannerghatta Biological Park in Bengaluru recently brought eight black-capped capuchin monkeys from South Africa.

These monkeys, four males and four females, came from a place called Induna Primate and Parrot Park.

They arrived at an airport in Bengaluru on December 14 in the evening.

Before they could come to India, many officials gave their permission, and the monkeys were checked and kept in quarantine in South Africa.

Now, they are in a special quarantine place in India and will be checked by doctors before they can be shown to the public.

This is part of a program to help protect these monkeys and teach people about them.
