On Thursday, the 10th of March, a group of friends and I went to the Bali Elephant Park. Here, they exploit elephants, they encage cockatiels, native bears, a hawk, a few different kinds of monkeys, and they care for abandoned orangutans that would otherwise not be surviving in the jungles. Despite my obvious remorse for the other animals that live at this park, I LOVED spending time with the baby orangutans. It was my dream as a young child to be Jane Goodall, a well-known monkey scientist. I have never actually been so close with a monkey before and I really liked it. I would love to do an internship working with monkeys at some point in my life. Our similarities, and our differences, fascinate me. They have four pairs of hands...they are awfully dexterous! Here's some pics of the animals and me at a waterfall that we visited afterwards. There is a way to sit behind the waterfall, but unfortunately we didn't bring out bathing suits so we didn't do that.
