In a heart-warming incident, an ice cream seller adopted a baby monkey after its mother passed away in a road accident in the Indian capital Delhi.

He was passing by the road when he spotted the baby macaque crying beside its dead mother.

The sight moved Ram Kumar’s heart and he took the monkey with himself to his home.

Since then he has raised him like his son and named him PK.

The video shot on 21st October shows the monkey sitting on the ice cream cart as the owner brings out Peanuts for it to eat.
The little ape snatches the peanuts from his hands and eats it as Ram asks him to be disciplined.

The Ice-cream seller says that he has owned him for over a few months and they both have an unbreakable bond.

He says: “I adopted it as it didn’t have a parent and its mother was dead. It is an incarnation of Hanuman (Monkey God in Hinduism) and I adopted it for a few weeks.”

“Ever since it has come in my life, my ice cream sales have increased as people flock to see PK and buys ice cream.”

“It likes having peanuts and also sometimes takes out ice cream and eats half of it and throws it away, but that doesn’t matter as it is now a part of my family.”

Ram has been harassed by the police for possessing the animal but that has not deterred him from bringing it along with him.

Ram says, “There is no one at home to take its care as I stay alone so I bring it along with me to work.”

“The police have been harassing me for having PK and said that I am possessing it illegally but I am sending it to my village in two days until I get a license for it which is going to cost me around 15000 INR, (200 GBP).”
