Zoo keeper, Zhang Bangsheng, used warm water to clean a small Francois’ Leaf Monkey’s buttocks at Wuhan Zoo in China, 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 50-year-old Zhang Bangsheng laugh with satisfaction.
The monkey was in an exhibit and people feed the monkey peanuts. The zoo keeper, Zhang, discovered that the little monkey had indigestion and difficulty defecating, and immediately became worried.
Because the monkey is too small, it wasn’t suitable to use medicine to help it defecate. The only way he thought he could help the monkey was to lick its buttocks, to prompt it to defecate the peanut.
I’m hoping that this story is made up.
