Specially trained Capuchin monkeys in the US are helping physically disabled people with housework by performing tasks such as removing garbage, fetching the mobile phone or switching on the microwave, local media reported. Monkey College, a facility run by a Boston-based aid organization, trains monkeys as household assistants and life partners for paralyzed people. In this unusual school, the monkeys practice using light switches, drawers, bottles and CD players. Trainers drill the monkeys on around 30 commands, including "fetch," "push" and "open."
據(jù)當(dāng)?shù)孛襟w報(bào)道，在美國，一種經(jīng)過專門培訓(xùn)的僧帽猴可以協(xié)助殘疾人做家務(wù)，例如倒垃圾、取手機(jī)或開關(guān)微波爐。一家波士頓的救援組織成立了一所猴子大學(xué)，專門訓(xùn)練猴子成為家庭助手和癱瘓者的生活伴侶，小猴們?cè)趯W(xué)校里學(xué)習(xí)使用電燈開關(guān)、抽屜、瓶子、CD播放機(jī)等。訓(xùn)練員會(huì)通過30種口令來調(diào)教它們，如"取"、"推"、"開"等。
