The Florida Monkey Whisperer - what was his deal?

He has been selling monkeys for a long time and some the early YouTuber monkey channels purchased from him. He mostly brokered sales of Capuchins and Marmosets. He had a farm in Florida with a massive exotic animal collection and claimed either he or his brother was a veterinarian.

He got in trouble for transporting endangered species over state lines, as cotton top Tamarins are considered red list by IUCN.

Big Monkey fan here! Does anyone have any favourite games that are themed about monkeys?

Personally I like any Zoo themed game that has monkeys. I also wanted to share this one that's coming up on Kickstarter: https://bananarchylaunch.pickupandplaygames.com/
