As you all remember blue bayou had a chimpanzee that just sat in a cage and smoked cigarettes that guest would flick at it. After being sued blue bayou got rid of the monkey in the hopes for a better life.

Animal rights activists have sued Dixie Landin’ park in Baton Rouge, Louisiana to have a soda-guzzling, cigarette-smoking chimpanzee named Candy removed to an animal sanctuary


After spending a couple years free in an animal sanctuary.. I’m sad to report that candy succumbed to a hard life of soda and smoked and passed away.

I don’t think monkeys should be kept in cages at Blue Bayou. Let them go on the water slides and lazy river, man.

All of the chimps at the old Jackson (MS) Zoo smoked. People used to thump their lit smokes over the moat to them. The enclosure was full of old cigarette butts.
