so sad to hear he has died

I was shocked when I saw the headline - Jim Cronin was only 55. Monkey World didn't really figure on my radar until we moved abroad where Animal Planet is one of the few TV stations we can get. Dd2 wants to go to MW since she's seen it on TV.

Monkey World isn't far from here. Very .

Is that Monkey World in Dorset?

OMG had no idea. so very

OMG he's dead?

Ahh, I used to love going to monkeyworld when I lived in Dorset. What did he die of?

So, so sad to hear the news about Jim. Monkey World is really near to our home and my family and I visit there as often as we can. He truely was an amazing man with a very big heart. My thoughts are going out to his wife and family at this really sad time. RIP Jim xx.

oh that's so sad, he was so passionate and will be missed

It's a shame. Hope his wife carries on doing all the good they did together.
always makes me sad whan i watch them rescuing them.

Oh I looooved Monkey World. DH adopted a chimp for me for my 21st birthday.
