Solution

Ecuador, in South America, has made history by becoming the first country to recognise the legal rights of individual wild animals. The decision was taken by the country’s highest court when it was hearing a case for Estrellita, a woolly monkey taken from the wild when she was one-month-old and kept as a pet. She later died a month after it was moved to the zoo.
