So, we took the day and went a bit further east to Puyo to go to the Paseo de Monos - a monkey refuge.
We also got a bit of the jungle in some of the trails we walked.
Monkeys were swinging from the trees...
Sleeping in the trees....
Great trees to stand in/under....
But, many monkeys were behind bars to protect them. We weren't allowed to touch them. They sure looked like they wanted to be touched.
This one, we called Ladronito (little thief). He was not behind bars and he lost an arm - probably from stealing.
He liked to jump on anyone's bag and try to open it to take whatever he could. We were warned to make sure our bags were closed tightly. Here he is trying to figure out the zipper on my bag.
Good thing he didn't get in....our hostel keys and Cassi's sunglasses were in there.
Ring tail?
