Two baby monkeys were released this week in Jingdong county, Yunnan Province, but Nature Bureau Reserve staff said one of the monkeys refused to join his comrade and instead clung to the leg of the man who has been feeding him.

"He was fed by people for a long time; he is used to depending on human beings. It is difficult for him to survive in the wild. One reason is that he is too small. Another reason is that he needs more food now. So we'll feed him for a longer period of time and release him after a re-wilding training," the feeder said.
