00:00If someone says that life is not fair or just,
00:03do you agree or do you hold that grudge in your heart?
00:07It is often the people on top that benefit from good things,
00:12while the ones on the bottom are left behind.
00:16Not only the people I'm talking about,
00:18but also the people in Animal Kingdom.
00:20Just like in the story Amazing No. 4,
00:23the ones on top are the ones with the advantage.
00:26Taiwan's jungles are vast and abundant.
00:31But for the people who live here,
00:35they have to look for food.
00:45Whenever it rains, it's cold in the morning,
00:48especially in the mountains.
00:51The temperature here drops to 10 degrees Celsius.
00:55The Formosan rock macaques hug each other to cool down.
01:03It's sweet, right?
01:04But they can't stay here.
01:07Because they have to look for food, they have to move.
01:13The Formosan rock macaques are the main non-human primates here.
01:18They often live on trees.
01:21They can also live on the ground.
01:23So instead of jumping to move trees,
01:26they prefer to walk.
01:30This baby macaque is depending on its mother for food.
01:35Until the end of the year,
01:37that's why its mother has to work hard.
01:43Now, they'll go to their favorite town.
01:49They're already familiar with the roads.
01:56They're already familiar with the roads.
02:02Finally, they've arrived.
02:05It's already near the city.
02:17For the macaques, it's also a blessing for humans.
02:21At the end of the jungle,
02:23there's a lot of food that they can get.
02:27There are a lot of fruits.
02:31And they can also eat the skin of the trees.
02:35Their livelihood depends on what they can eat.
02:42The higher they are, the more profitable they are.
02:48The macaques will go to their favorite places.
02:52While they're enjoying,
02:54usually, the low-class macaques will stay in the wild.
03:02These females are eager to eat the skin.
03:12The fruits thrown at them are already empty.
03:16While they're eating, their son is watching them.
03:23He's trying to make the kids happy.
03:28Playing is a big thing for the macaques.
03:32Here, they're able to maintain their dignity
03:35and they're able to find their own happiness.
03:39It's envious.
03:42But this kid will stay in the jungle.
03:48He's too young to be bullied by other older macaques.
03:53When he grows up and becomes stronger,
03:55he'll be confident.
03:58He'll be able to do anything.
04:01He'll be able to do anything.
04:04He'll be able to do anything.
04:06When he grows up and becomes stronger,
04:08he'll be confident.
04:13But for now, he'll have to wait for the right time.
04:36You
