Chan Yiu Wing 51, cries while the monkey Kam Ying rests on his shoulders, after his father "Chan Pak" died this week in Hong Kong June 24, 2004. The fate of Hong Kong's most famous monkey, Kam Ying, now hangs in the balance after his owner of many years died recently. Kam Ying, which means Golden Eagle, shot to prominence when authorities forcibly removed the monkey from his owner in recent years. The government only relented when it came under harsh public attacks for being heartless. The owner Chan Pak died this week in hospital and the monkey is said to be very forlorn and has hardly eaten since the old man left for the hospital. REUTERS/Kin Cheung KC/LA
