A Night Monkey in the House. A charming little essay from 1886 (newly exhumed from the Harper's Magazine archives) about living with a pet monkey. (Actually, kinkajous aren't really monkeys, they're more closely related to raccoons. But they have prehensile tails, they like bananas, and they look very cute.)

Monkey On Your Back. From the UCR California Museum of Photography. "This exhibition is a survey of people relating to their primitive cousins through humorous, ironic relationships and poignant indignities."
