photos of the day – me and my monkey

If this was a chimpanzee and not a spider monkey, Chris would be missing most of his face, both eyeballs, definitely his genitals, and possibly one nipple in this photo.

Now in Wildboyz terms I’m pretty sure you’re beyond conditioned at this point to expect the worst from the above snippet, but for once we’re going the opposite direction and literally giving you a monkey. And not just any monkey, but Chico the spider monkey! I know, you’re waiting for that other offensive shoe to drop, but please Belize me when I assure you that everybody’s got something to hide except for me and my monkey here. So relax, come along, and enjoy, as we show you photos of grown men innocently playing with their monkey with absolutely no icky fluids involved.

Is there anything more relaxing than hanging out in the Central American tropics of Belize and stroking your monkey on a sunny afternoon? Obviously not, or Unga would’ve smashed Chico.

Who said anything about there being missing evolutionary link? I see about 200 of them right there linking monkey to man (not to mention the photo above this one).

Chico and Dimitry check for booger bats in the cave. All clear on both nasal cavity counts!

You know, after seeing Trip’s bedroom eyes here, I can’t help but wonder if there were fluids of some sort involved? Hmmm…
