Monkey Island has been around since the 1960s and very little has been done to maintain it – until now. Renovations are now underway on the island, but the work isn't done after that is completed. Monkeys still need to be fed and cared for. Locals know that Ralph, Ebony and Emily are getting older and it is even more expensive to replace them. That’s why fundraising is an important part of the historic island’s existence.
Ralph, Emily and Ebony. They are the energetic primates living on Florida's own version of Alcatraz, Monkey Island. They love to swing by their tails, enjoy the scenic views of Homosassa River and eat. Their favorite meal? Sweet potato.
