Canadian singer Justin Bieber's monkey is settling into a new life at a German safari park after being seized by custom authorities earlier this month.
Mally, a 23-week-old white-headed capuchin, arrived at Serengeti Park in Hodenhagen last Sunday, but will be in quarantine three more weeks before being integrated with his monkey family of three males and three females.
Justin Bieber's antics, a sign of the crushing power of fame?
Located about 160 kilometres west of Berlin, Serengeti Park is home to 1,500 animals over two square kilometres.
A spokesman for German customs previously said Justin Bieber would be sent a bill to cover the cost of Mally's care, estimated to be around $1,300 Cdn. (Jeff Daly/Invision/Associated Press) "We are making all necessary preparations in order to ensure that Mally has the best possible transition to his new home and has no problems integrating with others of his species," Fabrizio Sepe, managing director of Serengeti Park, said in a statement released Friday.
Mally was seized by German customs on March 28 after the 19-year-old Stratford, Ont.-raised pop star failed to produce the proper vaccination and import papers when he landed in Munich for a European tour.
