A baby gray snub-nosed monkey made its debut at the Beijing Zoo on Monday, attracting numerous visitors.
The baby monkey is named "Taotao", which means "naughty" in Mandarin. It was recently born in the zoo.
The Beijing Zoo currently houses three kinds of snub-nosed monkeys: the gray snub-nosed monkey, the golden snub-nosed monkey and the black snub-nosed monkey. All of them are under first-class state protection in China.
The population of gray snub-nosed monkeys is believed to be less than giant pandas, which is also a species under protection.
