Cute little monkey on cute little boy's head pic

Monkey see, monkey 'do: FARC rebels have driven about 80 Nukak-Maku, including this boy, from their ancestoral jungles in Colombia's Guaviare state to a makeshift refugee camp. The nomadic tribe is on the brink of extinction

2. I don't think that monkey is so cute.

I believe it is responsible for the scratches on that little boy's face. Look at the monkey's fingers.

3. I thought it was berry juice. He's not crying about it anyway.

5. Maybe someone was trying to remove the monkey from the little

boy? The monkey rebelled and they finally relented and allowed the monkey back with his friend? It's a possibility.

(My grandfather used to have a chicken that used to insist on sitting on his head. He got very upset if someone interfered.)

6. Uh...those are tribal decorations.

Aboriginal face-painting, not scratches.


Nevermind!
