One day, a three-year old mountain monkey called “Monchan” wandered into a village day care center—andinto human society. She quickly made friends with her human classmates and teachers, and became a much-loved member of the class.  But eventually the day came when, for her own good, Monchan was made to return to the mountain wilds - an emotional ordeal for both her and her new pals. In this program, a small orphan monkey offers a close-up look at humankind’s relations with its animal cousins.
