The Age of a Spider Monkey is an autobiographical story that mostly takes place behind the scenes at a zoo in the 1980s. With a hint of romance, black-market tiger cubs, unexpected animal deaths, the truth about the "Species Survival Plan" and more--there's something new in every chapter. And the more you learn about the animals, the more you realize why they do not belong in zoos to be bred for the amusement of humans. The author fulfilled her dream of working with animals when she began volunteering at the local zoo in the 1980s. But over the next decade, she came to realize that keeping animals in captivity was wrong. Each chapter highlights the lives of different animals-from spider monkeys to elephants to tigers-and as you read along in this eye-opening journey with the author, you, too, will be transformed. The author donates 10% of this book's proceeds to animal sanctuaries.
