A 15-day-old night monkey is fed by a veterinarian at a temporary shelter west of Bogota, Colombia. Sponsored by the Environment Ministry, the shelter receives between 3,000 and 3,500 wild animals a year; some are seized from poachersm, and others are found hurt. An estimated $560,000 is spent on the recovery and care of these animals. Seventy percent of rescued animals are reintroduced to their habitat, and the remaining 30 percent are sent to zoos around the country.
