A zoo keeper licked a Francois' leaf monkey's bottom for a full hour when he noticed it ate peanuts.
The 50-year-old man from China was worried when he saw that the monkey was unwell, with its life possibly in danger, after a public showing.
Soon after, Zhang Bangsheng quickly spotted the peanut shells on the ground.
Francois' leaf monkeys are one of the rarest types of monkey, with only around 1,400 to 1,650 left in China. This one is the first to be born in China's Wuhan Zoo in almost a decade.
Bangsheng saved the monkey by washing the monkey's behind with warm water then licking it for an hour.
He said that the tiny monkey is too small to take medication in the normal way.
Orange News reports that Bangsheng "laughed with satisfaction" when the monkey finally excreted the nut.
