Monkey World

Last weekends weather was so BEAUTIFULLY SUNNY.... that during the week my friends and I arranged to go to Monkey World, Dorset. This weekend we were unsure if it was going to rain as the weather forecast said it was going to pour down... But we didn't take any notice of the threat of rain and decided to go. We were lucky that it didn't rain but the weather was bloody freezing!! 

I'm a massive animal lover, so the thought of a zoo being open to the public that's based on a rescue organisation has my vote everytime. 

Monkey World is full of... Yup you've guessed it... Monkeys... 250+ primates that have been lucky enough to be given a new lease of life (plus the best adult playgrounds around) It's amazing to read the unbelievable shocking story's of how the monkeys were kept before they were rescued by Monkey World that have managed to give them a loving, fun, caring home. As I walked around the park I was really upset to see the reality of the size of some cages these primates once lived in day and night in laboratories. 

Behind the old cages these monkeys once called home situate their new homes with sooo much more space full of ropes to swing on, baskets to sleep in and trees to climb and monkey friends to play with. 

It's such a lovely day out for all the family and Monkey World even has its own TV program which I believe is called Monkey Business which I grew up watching! Even better you can also adopt a monkey at the rescue centre. 

Have you ever been to Monkey World? Hope you've had a lovely weekend. Love Katie xXx
