A break in at Zoo Boise had devestating effects. A monkey at the zoo was gravely injured. This paragraph from the article speaks volumes:
During a search of the zoo before dawn, Burns heard a groan that at first he thought sounded human. It turned out to be an injured Patas monkey barely moving near the perimeter fence.
The zoo's veterinarian was called, but the monkey died just before 6 a.m. as it was being examined. A necropsy later determined that blunt force trauma was the cause of death, police said.
As the investigation continues we can only hope the person responsible is caught and charged with every chrime possible.
