Zaira was introduced to Jungle Friends in Las Vegas prior to her move to Florida; it wasn’t until 15 years later, that she arrived in Gainesville by private plane. Although she had been without monkey friends for 15 years, she had no problem becoming a monkey and reuniting with her old monkey friends from Las Vegas. Zaira was diagnosed with diabetes when she arrived at the sanctuary; fortunately, she reunited with an old friend from Las Vegas, who is also diabetic. Zaira is doing just great and is one of the sweetest monkeys at the sanctuary – she always seems to be happy and in a good mood!
