A monkey escaped this Thursday from the Havana Zoo, located on 26th Avenue in Vedado, as reported by several internet users on Facebook.
The profile "Cántalo TV" posted images of the monkey walking down the avenue and being guarded by a street dog.
"Not even the monkeys can stand living on the island," comments the author of the publication ironically.
Other photographs show the primate approaching a bus stop near the zoo in Havana, the main zoological park in Cuba and the oldest in the country (1939).
Cubans know it as "Zoo 26" because it is located on the important avenue.
On May 14th, another monkey escaped from the facility that housed it in the municipality of Caibarién, Villa Clara province, and was captured by the Red Berets of the Ministry of the Interior (MININT) with the help of dogs.
Last year, a Cuban YouTuber reported the scarcity and mistreatment suffered by animals at the 26 Zoo in Havana. After touring the extensive facility, the YouTuber was able to confirm that the few specimens still there were malnourished, and some did not even have water.
