Bibi is known around the sanctuary for being playful and brave. He’s the type of monkey that isn’t afraid to explore strange objects or climb to the highest branches. But even the bravest monkey can be caught off guard—and this prank proved it.
One sunny morning, a caretaker decided to play a lighthearted trick on Bibi. He brought out a large, scary-looking dinosaur head mask with sharp teeth and big, bulging eyes. The plan was to place the dinosaur head in a hidden corner and wait for Bibi to find it while exploring.
As Bibi wandered around, sniffing the ground and searching for snacks, he finally came across the strange, monstrous face sticking out from behind a bush. At first, he just stared. His eyes widened, his body froze, and his tail went stiff. He tilted his head, clearly confused about what he was looking at.
Then it happened—Bibi let out a loud squeal, jumped nearly three feet in the air, and ran in circles as if the dinosaur was chasing him. His reaction was absolutely priceless. All the other monkeys, sensing the excitement, joined in the chaos, swinging from branches and squeaking loudly as if they too believed the dinosaur might be real.
But the fun didn’t stop there. After a few minutes, Bibi slowly crept back toward the mask, curiosity winning over fear. He reached out with one shaky hand and touched the nose of the dinosaur. When it didn’t move, he looked behind it and realized the truth—it wasn’t a real creature at all! Instantly, he began jumping and clapping, clearly proud of himself for solving the mystery.
Soon, Bibi started to play with the dinosaur head, wearing it on top of his own, pretending to be a scary monster too. The other monkeys stared at him in confusion, just as he had earlier. Some even ran away from him, causing another round of giggles from the watching humans.
This funny prank not only gave everyone a good laugh but also showed just how clever and playful monkeys like Bibi can be. It was a perfect example of how animals, just like humans, enjoy a good joke and aren’t afraid to laugh—even at themselves.
