It saddens me to see them caged up, but I know that for many of them, they are outcasts and would not survive on their own. I would have to say that monkeys are one of my fav animals though.
I really like how you have captured the animals in the photo behind the cage lines, the shadow of more cage lines in the background, along with more cage lines trapping other animals. The large limb cutting across the photo and the sadness of two little fellows in the shot. Your photo has really touched on something many of us feel - the caged animal is not a happy animal.

ReplyDeleteThat is a great shot.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that they posed so perfectly for you...one face on and the other in profile. Love the black and white....nice photo.
ReplyDeletethose are pretty sad monkeys, maybe they need a snack or something.
ReplyDeletenice M post. have a great day.
Your monkey is looking a little sad, Lori. Nice "M" word post. So far three of the four I've visited (includes my own) have animals, all different.

ReplyDeleteM is for Macaque! At least think that is what they are. I agree they look a little sad. They need more enrichement! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, they look so sad. Great shot, though.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot! I agree with the others, those monkeys do look sad.
ReplyDeleteI made the monkey noise when I saw this picture.
ReplyDeleteIt scared my weiner dog!

The shadows are magnificent in this capture.
Zoos always make me a little bit sad, though.
