I was rummaging through some old photos in my archive and found some photos I shot a few years ago when I visited\u00a0Mostly Monkeys<\/a>.\u00a0Mostly Monkeys is a sanctuary for unwanted and abused Monkeys and Animals. The facility is currently home to 55 animals including various species of monkeys, a Mountain Lion, Fennec Fox, Badger, and a Kinkajou.<\/p>\n

Mostly Monkeys is a non profit organization founded by Suzy Carey and is supported soley by private donations. Carey is also a zookeeper at the San Diego Wildlife Park and spends her time after work at the sanctuary.<\/p>\n

Many of the animals are unwanted by Zoos and Reserves because they are either too common in species or have developed neurotic behaviors. These neurotic personalities are a result of being caged up and socializing with humans for most of their life. This would disable them from socializing normally with wild monkeys or captive monkeys in zoos.<\/p>\n

I went out to visit the sanctuary for a journalism assignment and was blown away at how many animals she takes care of. Its an amazing facility and\u00a0I’ve gone back a couple times to visit and plan to go again soon. More photos on my flickr<\/a>.<\/p>\n
