The stress of reporting on the Monkey Haters

Available for over a year

Where do you draw the line on broadcasting the horrors of animals being tortured? The documentary The Monkey Haters, tells the story of how Macaques are put through unimaginable pain all because people online are willing to pay to watch. It’s possibly one of the most disturbing and upsetting documentaries on animals the Word Service has broadcast. We hear listeners reactions and speak with the programme’s presenter and also its undercover reporter. Presenter: Rajan Datar Producer: Howard Shannon A Whistledown production for BBC World Service
