  15. marmolady liked Pandaboi's media L’Hoest Monkey - Kanye in the category Twycross Zoo

    This is Kanye. He lives with a female called Patricia near the Zebras. Originally he lived in the main group until him and his father fell out as Kanye matured. He did live in the former Bonobo enclosure but had to move because he could see his father ‘Gimini’.
