Boss and Joko moved to Socialisation Area
May 31, 2010
Our macaques, Boss and Joko are sitting together in the Socialisation area, since we moved them there on May 12. For the first few days we caged them separately but next to each other so they could be in contact but not hurt each other. They were, from the beginning, very friendly to each other and had a lot of contact. So, after a few day we put them together in the cage. Immediately, they started grooming and playing and were soon the best of friends. They now live together in three interconnected cages – so they have plenty of space. This Friday we will pick up a female macaque from JAAN in Jakarta. She will go into quarantine where we will test her for diseases and all going well, we will introduce her to Boss and Joko.
