Original Toronto Star caption: Monkey-shining up to her boss. She's a playful little monkey now but Agnes the orangutan was rather shy when she arrived two months ago from Antwerp Zoo. She flew in with a burlap bag as a security blanket; but she's given that up now and seems to find that people make more interesting friends as she cosies up to George Rason; a pavilion foreman at Metro Zoo. The orang-utan; who'll be 3 years old next month; completed her 45-day quarantine and will soon join orang-utans; Puppi and Mingo. [Incomplete]
