The baby monkey, named Tico, was once a lively and playful creature, swinging joyfully through the trees. But recently, Tico had become lethargic and weak, much to the concern of his mother and the rest of the troop. His glossy fur had lost its sheen, and he was no longer interested in playing or eating his favorite fruits.
The cause of Tico’s malaise was soon discovered: worms. These parasites had invaded his small body, sapping his energy and causing him great discomfort. His mother watched anxiously as he scratched and whimpered, clearly distressed by the wriggling invaders.
Fortunately, the troop’s wise leader, an older monkey named Bongo, knew of a natural remedy. He led Tico and his mother to a special plant known for its antiparasitic properties. After a few days of consuming the plant’s leaves, Tico began to regain his strength. His energy returned, and soon he was back to his mischievous self, free from the torment of worms.
