HEARTWARMING pictures and video footage have captured an armless monkey playing after having his arms amputated due to injuries from electrocution. The cute footage shows Jesse the Samango monkey jumping from branch to branch, taking a quick nap and eating his dinner. Other stunning shots show the plucky monkey hanging upside down by his feet, running along the ground and looking out at his surroundings. Jesse was rescued by The Vervet Monkey Foundation in South Africa after being electrocuted and finding his way into an elderly woman’s apartment. Mediadrumimages / Vervet Monkey Foundation
