[News] Ikea Monkey in Toronto
I hope I'm not violating any rules such as mulit-posting irrelevant articles.
This news was a funny one that happended in my community in December.
I selected the 2012 top stories review article to share, becasue it's written
on the 24th (latest) and has a complete story of the whole event.

#Ikeamonkey
The story of the monkey that appeared in the parking lot of a Toronto Ikea
store clad in a shearling coat and diaper took the world — and social media —
by storm.
Darwin, the so-called Ikea monkey, was one of the most surprising stories to
happen in Toronto in 2012. (Photograph in original source link)
Darwin, as he is known, escaped from a vehicle he had been left in while his
owner, Yasmin Nakhuda, was shopping inside the store.
Nakhuda told CBC News that the Japanese macaque had been to Ikea before, but
she had been told by staff that pets were not permitted in the store — that's
why Darwin was left in her vehicle on the day that he escaped.
Nakhuda is now fighting to have the animal returned to her.
Darwin will spend the holidays in an animal sanctuary until the judge makes
a ruling on his long-term custody, which is expected in the new year.

3. Remarks:
It's illegal to keep a wild monkey as pet in Ontario but legal in Quebec
so the woman seems to plan to move back to Quebec after reobtain her monkey.
