Expanding upon this...who says the whole thing wasn't just for publicity + pity?

This whole thing is local news for me; the zoo is literally about 15 minutes drive from my house. Anyway...they are notoriously hard pressed for funding. I hate to suggest something like this, but who says that a zookeeper didn't just take the monkey on a little vacation to win the pity (and paychecks) of the community?

Considering that a municipal election is less than a month away, I'd have to bet that there's more to this than meets the eye. Or maybe I'm just paranoid - one or the other:p
