CHINESE New Year is being celebrated at Dudley Zoo today with a little help from the spider monkeys.

As it’s the year of the monkey, Valentine, Charlie, Chester and Evita are joining in the fun with some themed enrichment boxes filled with tasty treats.

The popular Castle Hill attraction has a wide variety of primates for visitors to see during the year of the monkey – including Sulawesi crested macaques, black and white ruffed lemurs, yellow breasted capuchins and the Columbian black spider monkey.

Stourbridge News:

Those full-paying visitors who pop in before the end of February will also get a free return ticket, valid for six months.
