Topeng Monyet

Thousands of macaques are bred or captured from the wild to be used as


street performers, or known as “topeng monyet”. The macaques are used to perform
street shows; wearing funny masks, riding bicycles, performing acrobatic moves and
doing amusing things. However, such shows should be banned for few reasons.
First, topeng monyet is a kind of exploitation of monkeys for money. The
monkeys are hung from chains for long periods to train them to walk on their hind
legs like humans. Their teeth are extracted so they can’t bite and they are tortured to
remain obedient. The monkeys are often outfitted in dresses and cowboy hats and
forced to carry parasols or ride tiny bikes. This animal abuse will definitely hurt the
monkeys.
Second, the ban of masked monkey show can help improve public order.
Topeng monyet is often performed when traffic is backed up at notoriously congested
intersections. This will disturb the sight and create traffic jams for many motorists or
pedestrians will slow down to watch the shows.
Third, banning the dancing monkeys is a necessary public health measure. It
is important to rescue the monkeys from street performances and help prevent
diseases carried by the monkeys. The monkeys used in topeng monyet may not be
healthy and may have potential to some diseases such as tuberculosis and hepatitis.
Considering the reasons stated above, topeng monyet should be banned for it
exploits the monkeys, causes traffic jams and spreads illnesses such as tuberculosis
and hepatitis.
