No Monkeying Around! Illegal NH Monkey Has New Home
Here's a happy update on Bella, the Patas monkey that was seized earlier last month from a Laconia residence where she was being illegally kept.
According to WMUR, Bella is now at a primate sanctuary in Oklahoma. I can only assume that she is at Mindy's Memory Primate Sanctuary in Newcastle OK.

Did you know it was illegal to own a monkey in New England? We belong to the group of 19 states that banned private monkey ownership in 2012. No monkey business! Literally.
