I dont understand why human beings find the need to do something so awful....

I think we know enough to know any pack or pride of wild animals love their young...in some cases far better than some humans do theirs...

but to do this to put on youtube..they must be sick.

some animals grieve longer than humans....

Humans have innate compassion as well cods. And the researchers who study grief among animals are not sick ...

Watching those poor, distraught monkeys grieving over one of their fallen. Reminded me of the Democrats once Hilary lost.

Tony's been visiting relatives?

Love the old 'drop off the high log' trick to see if it squeals..... hey, kid - you all right there? I think much of the 'emotional' input is from the background music.....
