Animal welfare activists are calling on the province of Ontario to rescue a young macaque monkey displaying “troubling” behaviour at a roadside zoo in the town of Kincardine.

“We have filmed him performing stereotypical behaviours, which include spinning in circles, pacing back and forth in a repetitive motion, and also appearing to bite himself,” animal rights lawyer Camille Labchuk said.
