While this is a good photo, it is a sad posting and perhaps you could think about putting up a photo of monkeys in the wild instead. Project Noah would like to include spottings of animals in their habitats and not photos of animals being chained in this way. Primates shouldn't be kept as pets or for entertainment; this blog explains why: http://blog.projectnoah.org/post/41202295814/animals-in-entertainment-bears-primates . Perhaps your class could discuss this topic after reading the blog - I hope you have a good discussion!
