Why the mother baby monkey do that to her kid ?

The action of the monkeys does not make sense. Libby is likely instigated once again by the VOs to throw Leo in and out of the pool because they think they will get more viewership than when she drags and throws him on the ground. Its such a stupid move because Leo is already an excellent swimmer. If you watch closely, the camera avoids showing Libby as her eyes were probably looking at the VOs barking instructions but focuses on showing Leo’s torture and predicament after the torture. They then kept Libby and Rainbow away for some time to capture Leo’s misery. These people are so sick up there. When they returned Libby to Leo after the ordeal, she cleans his hand and feet like a mom would. It is wrong for the VOs to create such scenes as Leo will be skeptical of his mom, thus undermining the bond between a mother and her 3 month old baby. The VOs filmed this as if it is just a commercial money making scene. They do no care about the psychological and physical scarring of the animals and impact on their relationship. The next scene shows them putting Leo in the company of the bigger monkeys and both Libby and Rainbow are distracted away from Leo. Leo is so exploited, pitiful looking at how he suffered.
