I'd like to share these photos of our wild monkeys peacefully foraging for their wild food at Admiralty Park. Our monkeys are not starving. By eating their natural food in our wild places, these monkeys also disperse our native plants. Read more about this encounter on the wild shores of singapore blog. And please don't feed the monkeys.
