Just days old and very vulnerable, baby monkey Mini was taken from her mother in the forest and sold to a YouTuber. She became a celebrity in a global online monkey torture ring. \n\nThe people who wanted to do something to Mini, who were willing to pay to see her suffer, were on the other side of the world - mainly in the US and the UK. Mini was just one of thousands of monkeys being abused and filmed for the clicks and likes of westerners. \n\nBBC Eye went undercover to expose the perpetrators and find Mini. This is the story of the torturers, the internet sleuths hunting them and the race to save Mini.
