These are not captivated - McRitchie reservoir park is the largest rainforest area in Singapore. Everywhere in the park there are plates telling the visitors that there is enough food in the forest and how bad it is to feed the monkeys. Some individuals still don't get it though...
Captivated animals are depend on what authorities feed them or visitors. Otherwise where they will go..?
He was pretty nasty by the way. They pretend to be cute for a while only to find a moment to snatch something from you!
Like a punished nasty student of the class...!!
