Mystery Monkey of Tampa Bay Captured

When I first read the headline, my mind went straight to the gutter. Still, this story is a bit strange. A woman is helping her husband's monkey school, they exists, by breastfeeding the monkeys.

Jiao Xinzhen, the wife, knows it's a bit bizarre and has been explaining why she does it during interviews to stir up some new business. Oh but it gets really creepy. She also stated "Many times, some of the baby monkeys slip onto our bed at night to suckle. I feel they are just like my children."

And still it gets stranger. They family adopted one of their students as a playmate for their son saying "When I see him playing with my son I can see how close we are to them and they are to us and I'm pleased my boy has such a good playmate."

What are they training the monkeys for? Most of the students move on to on screen in movies, also they become circus and street performers. Who knew there was a demand for trained monkeys (wait, that's what they call us around here - bastards).

Still, no real answer as why she breastfeeds the babies or how exactly it started. It's just creepy and wrong in so many ways.
