RETRO FIND: Adorable monkey missed pig friends, traveled miles to find more

This cute primate had to be surrounded by hogs or she wasn’t happy.

This is Molly B. She's *** rhesus monkey. She's more than 20 years old and right now, Molly is hard at work watching over several hogs. But recently Mr Cobb sold all of his hogs and Molly became quite lonely. So she hit the road. She ended up inside this hog barn on the holloman six miles down the road. When the holloman found Molly, they called her former owner. Well, he said he sold out all his hog, so he thought it would be nice she could stay with in *** short amount of time. Molly has befriended these new hogs and they've become very protective of the monkey. Look at it. Molly has also proved to be *** valuable farmhand. When the showers lay down, she'll go through to make sure each baby gets, gets in there and when it's cold out, she'll bundle them all up into *** pile under *** heat lamp and lay on top of them to keep them warm and scratches their bellies. Of course, good help doesn't come cheap. This monkey won't work for just peanuts and Scott's the only human that Molly likes. But for these pigs, she's one monkey, they'll never want off their backs.
