Sad old Pascha Joe

Der 20 Jahre alte Rhesusaffe Joe war stets der Pascha auf dem Affenfelsen im Dresdner Zoos. Nach und nach wurde seine Gruppe immer kleiner. Der Zoo war an einer neuen Rhesusaffengruppe nicht interessiert und am Ende lebte er viele Jahre allein dort. Meist hatte er sich in seine Höhle zurückgezogen, doch wer Geduld hatte, konnte ihn schon mehrmals am Tage einsam und traurig auf dem Felsen sitzen sehen. * The 20-year-old rhesus monkey Joe was always the great Pasha on the Monkey Rock in the Dresden Zoo. Gradually, his group was getting smaller. The Zoo was not interested in building up a new group of rhesus monkeys and so at the end he lived alone there for many years. Mostly he had retreated into his cave, but visitors who had patience could see him several times a day sitting lonely and sad on his rock.

Rüsselspringer / Elephant Shrews

Wikipedia about these very nice and small animals: Elephant shrews, or jumping shrews, are small insectivorous mammals native to Africa, belonging to the family Macroscelididae, in the order Macroscelidea, whose traditional common English name comes from a fancied resemblance between their long noses and the trunk of an elephant, and an assumed relationship with the shrews (family Soricidae) in the order Insectivora.
