Morning Starters: Spring 2 - Mischievous Creatures
Did You Know?
Have you ever stood at the top of a diving board and felt nervous about jumping? A baby macaque faced that same feeling after climbing a tall pole. Just after learning to swim, he hesitated at the top—until another monkey gave him a playful push. Down he plunged into the water below, looking almost like a human high-diver. This cheeky moment was captured for the BBC’s Spy in the Wild series.
