This is Conchita, a rare white-naped mangabey monkey that was born in the London zoo. Her mother became ill and Conchita was delivered via Caesarean section in order to save her. Because her mother was too sick to take care of her, and not wanting Conchita to think humans were her mother (we all remember what happened to Nim -- it does NOT end well!) zoo-keepers gave Conchita a teddy bear and she now thinks it is her mother. She also apparently confuses noses for bananas. I can has?
