ENTRY DESCRIPTION
I was walking through the Monkey's Jungle located in UBUD - Bali. I was expecting to see a quite few monkeys around. That's the main reason that I choose to go there. However when I got there I realized that the situation rely not just about photographing monkeys in a wild life, but understand how their behavior in family was so similar than human being's behavior. I felt surprised with the scenes that I've seen there. The scene that I selected to insert here is very special indeed. I will tell you. At the beginning of the situation there were three monkeys together, one big male, a adult female and her little son. Over a period of 5 minutes approximately, the male started to push out the little monkey and clutched strongly the female. Then, my scene came up. Surprisingly, the female one moved away from the male monkey, denied him and embraced gently his son as a real mom. I took the picture that I am attaching here few seconds later.
