A 10-month-old female crested mona monkey named Amber at Parc Assango, a wildlife refuge run by ONG Animal's World, where staff work to rehabilitate and release orphaned and injured animals back into the wild in Libreville, Gabon. Amber's mother was killed by hunters. As a baby, she was offered as a gift to people who didn't know how to properly care for her. When her owners realized how unsuitable a monkey was as a pet, she was brought to the center and has been socialized with red-capped mangabeys, as she's the only one of her kind kept at the refuge.
