Zoo Caretaker Licks Monkey’s Butt To Help It Defecate

Via: peter-loves-the-real-tea-party • 12 years ago • 8 commentsYesterday, Wuhan Zoo Monkey caretaker Zhang Bangsheng unbelievably used his tongue to lick a small monkeys butt!
50-year-old Zhang Bangsheng used warm water to clean a small Francois Leaf Monkeys buttocks, then began using his mouth to lick it, not stopping for over an hour, until the little monkey defecated a single peanut. Only after the peanut was defecated did Zhang Bangsheng laugh with satisfaction.
As it is understood, this small Francois langur is only 3 months old, and is the first Francois Leaf Monkey to be born in nearly 10 years at this animal park. The Francois langur is a rare primate from Guangxi and Guizhou and is amongst the nations most protected animals. Because it is so precious, the zoo gave it to model worker and high-level expert Zhang Bangsheng to care for and raise.
On the first day of the May 1st short holiday, Zhang Bangsheng let the small Francois langur enter the monkey exhibit for the first time to meet visitors so it can see more of the world. The next day, Old Zhang discovered that the little monkey had indigestion and difficulty defecating, and immediately became worried. Seeing peanut shells on the ground, Old Zhang immediately understood that visitors had definitely tossed peanuts to the small monkey, and the toothless monkey swallowed the peanut whole. If it does not quickly defecate it, it would endanger the little monkeys life.
Because the monkey is too small, it wasnt suitable to use medicine to let it defecate. The only way was to lick its butt, to prompt it to defecate the peanut, and so the scene at the start of this article occurred.
No man, it's China!
He used a Chinese wet sponge.
Holy Crap!
That sounds much better to me Max
Um....now I no longer am amused by the pristine view of the primate habitat that I have at work. I will think of backed up monkeys getting their butts licked by overly dedicated zookeepers.
So wasZhang ready for the peanut or did he have to be careful not to swallow it himself?!
Damn Peter, best laugh I've had in days and thanks!
:~)
Sick!
