Unable to Continue Watching, There Was a Monkey Performance at the Scenic Area, "Mad Aliens" Says It's a National Treasure
Under the relentless threats and scolding from the monkey trainer, a monkey picked up a wooden stick and bravely retaliated, even climbing onto the trainer's body to slap and pull out their hair. This scene drew laughter from the onlookers.
It turns out that the movie 'Mad Aliens' even mentioned that monkey training is a Chinese national treasure, which angered some netizens.
Monkey training was particularly prevalent when I was young, and it's now rarely seen. These monkeys mimic and perform with considerable skill, it's a skillful art form, and it should be preserved.
The monkey trainer would intermittently wield a long whip, producing 'pa pa' sounds as it landed on the monkeys. After being whipped, the monkeys would obediently perform various pleasing actions for the audience.
These monkeys are so skinny, and they're bound with such thick ropes around their necks, it's really pitiful. Moreover, the trainer relentlessly whipped the monkeys with a whip, and many children were present, making this performance overly violent and cruel, and it's worrying about its influence on children's growth.
Monkeys are national protected animals; without permission, they cannot be kept. Monkeys belong to the category of national-level protected animals, with different species having different protection levels.
The whipped monkey suddenly jumped up over one meter, stretched out a 'hand' to grab the trainer's hat on their head, and threw it several meters away. The other two monkeys, seeing their companion 'attack', also initiated an attack, one of which jumped up and hugged the trainer's neck and bit, while the other stealthily moved to the trainer's back and pulled at their clothes.
At the scene, the man held three monkeys bound by ropes, instructing them to perform high-difficulty actions such as knife acceptance, basketball, and pulling carts. The monkeys would be beaten with a whip if they were 'disobedient' during the performance.
Under the command of the trainer, the three monkeys stood in a row, then sequentially turned left, turned right, and stood at attention, and the largest monkey bowed to the audience.
As more and more onlookers gathered, the trainer asked the monkeys to 'increase the intensity' of their performance. Under his command, one monkey set up a 'basketball hoop', and another monkey jumped from the ground to catch the trainer's high-thrown ball, successfully making a layup. The monkeys' performance caused the onlookers to cheer, and some began to throw coins into the enclosure.
According to national regulations, monkeys are national protected animals; without the approval of the Forest Department, they cannot be kept. Any profit-making activities using wild animals are not allowed.
