Monkey Day 2023: Monkeys are fascinating beings; they are endearing, mischievous, and often outright obnoxious (dissenters have obviously never had their laundry torn apart while it was drying by a primate family). In addition, numerous primate species are threatened with extinction, and animal welfare concerns and the use of primates in scientific studies have been raised. To raise awareness of the plight of non-human primates, Monkey Day has been established in honor of this occasion.
