A Nanning resident of the
Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region was given a big surprise when a female wild bee monkey let itself into his home last Thursday to give birth to twins.
The man, surnamed Yang, found the unexpected guest had made itself at home, and an awful mess of his bed.
But instead of getting rid of the monkey, Yang took care of the mother and fed it apples, and called the local animal rescue center for help. The three monkeys were later sent to the center for further observation.
Local experts said the pregnant bee monkey, which is now under strict State protection, might have entered Yang's home in search of food.
