I went to a zoo the other day?

Question

And I saw two monkeys on top of each other, and one was doing a strange thrusting motion, which I can only assume was abuse. I alerted the guard that one monkey was beating up another one, but he said they're fine. Should I report this? The poor monkey...

Answer 1

there mating.

Answer 2

nope

u should just join in  

Answer 3

its fine. ALot of times they could be playing. The zookeepers are trained well and know what they are doing. Like lion cubs or any cat, it looks like they are biting and hurting but they are actually playing. Its very sweet of you to worry about it but just trust the zookeeper.

Answer 4

It sounds like they were engaging in "monkey business." HOHOHOHO

In all seriousness though, it sounds like they're having s*x.

Answer 5

They were probably mock fighting. Young male animals often stage mock fights to practice for when they're older. Generally zoos keep a close eye on their animals to make sure that they get along. If an animal starts to behave aggressively towards the others in its exhibit, they remove the animal and try to figure out what caused the aggression.

Answer 6

They were making out, doing it, being intimate, having intercourse, having it away, having it off, jazzing, having a go at it, banging, getting it on, bonking, copulating, mating, pairing.

Yes definitely report it  :>)
