Unless it was from a pet shop!!

The only qualified wildlife vets in the country with the right medications are Dr Abu Baker at the Zoo and Dr Sven at Al Wabra.

I know when we rescued a hamadryas baboon at QAWS Dr Sven had to test her for diseases such as Tuberculosis, HIV and Hepatitis before we could send her to the UK to a primate sanctuary. She was the friendliest little girl you could imagine but she would still bite when she was angry and it HURT! A lot!! And she only had her baby teeth!

sharifa - what type of monkey is it and how old is it? Have you had experience with primates before?
