    I have just watched yesterdays programme,Monkey Life and was concerned to see that Trudy the chimp was not in the best of health, I understand that this programme would have been recorded some time ago, so do any of our members who visit Monkey World know how she is doing, I hope she is O.K.

    Trudy has had a lot of heath issues recently. She had a problem with her back, which was featured on Monkey Life and more recently she had problems with her stomach (bloating). Monkey World tried eliminating certain foods from her diet to try and determine the source of the problem, but this had no effect and she seemed to get better on her own. According to the Winter edition of Monkey World's newsletter, she is ok now.
