A lovely zoo park near where I live made the national news this week
"Five endangered monkeys worth several hundred pounds each have been stolen from a zoo as they slept, possibly in response to an increasing demand for exotic pets.
Thieves smashed through fencing at Drusillas Zoo Park at Alfriston, East Sussex, and stole the marmosets from their nesting boxes, park officials said.
There was concern today that the primates - normally found in the South American rainforests - could have been stolen to order for illegal collectors of rare animals"
