Christopher, originally from North Carolina, needed a new home after his guardians could no longer care for him. He had spent the first ten years of his life with his biological sister, who sadly passed away from cancer, leaving him without the companionship of other monkeys for five long years.

To ensure he received the companionship and well-being he deserved, his previous owner contacted Jungle Friends. Upon his arrival, Christopher's empathetic and charismatic nature quickly endeared him to the other monkeys. Before long, he formed a bond with Macy. This exuberant nurturer now spends his days closely with Macy, engaging in extensive grooming sessions that meet her high standards and deepen their connection. Together, they delight in their expansive habitat—exploring, foraging, and energetically swinging from buckets to barrels, fully embracing their vibrant sanctuary life with enthusiasm and affection.
