Rescue of Coco, the Rhesus Macaque

This is the story of Coco, the Rhesus Macaque!
Coco was found roaming in a fruit market. A passerby (informer) noticed Coco and approached him. The informer saw that Coco did not hesitate and came towards the man. He carried Coco to his car and drove him home. The informer knew the right thing to do was to call a wildlife rescue centre and he did. When our rescue team arrived, we found Coco to be fast asleep on the air conditioner. As much as we did not want to disturb his sleep, we had to make sure Coco was in an environment where he could develop the wild instincts he needed. This is how sweet Coco made his way to our centre!
Generally, Rhesus Macaques are found in the north and northeast India, while the endemic bonnets are found in the south. To find Coco in our city, being friendly in nature, confirms that he was kept captive for some time. We are glad Coco is now able to live as he should, wild and free!
Make sure to watch till the end to see the entire rescue mission!
