Zoo Hires Marvin Gaye Impersonator To Get Monkeys To Fuck
If they’ve got the money to do this, good for them. Whatever it takes to keep the species alive:
A British zoo aiming to bolster its population of endangered monkeys hired a Marvin Gaye impersonator to visit the enclosure and croon love songs. The Trentham Monkey Forest in Stafford, England, said David Largie, an experienced Marvin Gaye impersonator, performed selections from the soul legend’s catalog including “Let’s Get It On” and “Sexual Healing” inside the Barbary macaque habitat.
“We thought it could be a creative way to encourage our females to show a little affection to males that might not have been so lucky in love,” Park Director Matt Lovatt said on the zoo’s website.
