Street Monkey Mask Circus - Indonesia
A Long-tailed macaque monkey (Macaca fascicularis karimunjawa) during a street circus performs at Gurilla Street, Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia on November 29, 2023. Topeng Monye means "Masked Macaques" in Indonesian, is the name given to macaques used in street performances in Indonesian cities. The training of these macaques is particularly cruel, then their daily life, tirelessly repeating their show number, is extremely hard. In some regions of Indonesia, this representation is no longer authorized but associations for the protection of animals are trying to ban this exploitation of macaques, confiscate them and release them in a protected forest, throughout the country.
