Name: Darwin, Japanese Macaque

Date of Birth: 2012

Arrival Date: December 10, 2012

Previous home details: Darwin was born in Canada as part of the exotic pet trade in 2012, and had lived in a family home in Toronto. He was found in an IKEA parking lot in December 2012 after escaping from his owner’s car and was seized by local authorities. A social media and worldwide news sensation, Darwin has resided at SBFPS ever since.

Condition upon arrival: Darwin had been imprinted by humans, which rarely bodes well for a monkey. He was very insecure upon arrival, and needed to be the centre of everyone’s attention. He was sheltered from the other monkeys until he got used to his surroundings.

Progress: Since his arrival Darwin has grown in strides - learning to be far more monkey than human. He is grooming Sweet Pea, and calls to Julien and Lexy - mimicking their vocalizations and learning how to speak macaque. He has grown in size and confidence as well, and was slowly transitioned towards having multiple caregivers who he can trust and love as his ‘troop’, as he had no real monkey mother to show him the ropes.

Personality Traits: Darwin is a cheeky little guy, that’s for sure! He loves to play all day, and is always bouncing off the walls with excitement, especially when his favourite people come to visit! He loves to play tricks on you when you’re not looking, like any adolescent!

Favourite Activity: Darwin loves Curious George! He has a Curious George doll whom he takes to his pool to give a bath, and grooms him and tries to get him to drink. He also loves swinging on his fire hose.

Favourite Food: Darwin loves grapes, dates and cherries - but cherries definitely top the list!
