Sadness: A judge ruled today that Darwin will not be returned to Yasmin Nakhuda, the woman who calls herself his mom (pictured)
Fight: Darwin has been kept in the news by the battle over owns him. He was seized by animal authorities after his trip to Ikea
But Ontario Superior Court Judge Mary Vallee ruled Friday that while the monkey may have worn clothing and slept in his former owner's bed, he is still a wild animal and therefore should not be returned to her.
Nakhuda's lawyer's office said she would not be commenting on the decision. After she lost previous interim bids to get Darwin back, Nakhuda left court distraught.
Allegations she physically abused the monkey were dropped earlier in the year.
Nakhuda, a mother of two, has been trying to get back her pet ever since he was taken from her in December after escaping his cage and wandering round Ikea's parking lot.
Close: Nakhuda said the monkey was near her at all times, including while she slept and showered
Festive: Last year Nakhuda bought some Christmas outfits for the pet monkey. But today she learned he won't be returned to her
Out and about: Darwin achieved worldwide fame when he explored Ikea last December
Darwin was taken to Story Book Farm Primate Sanctuary where he has been living ever since was picked up at the Ikea in Toronto.
The sanctuary alleged that Nakhuda, a real estate lawyer, was an unfit mother who would beat the monkey with a spoon and even threatened to have its teeth removed.
She denied these allegations and the animal sanctuary has since dropped them, reportedly in an effort to avoid a lengthy trial.
Nakhuda said the Japanese macaque was illegally taken from her after the Ikea incident.
She claimed she misunderstood the forms she said that relinquished her ownership of Darwin as part of an emotional testimony in a Canada court in June.
‘I think when I had my two children I didn't have time to mother them. I was more focused on building my practice,’ Nakhuda said on the stand, according to CTV.
‘Having Darwin ... was like the chance to experience motherhood again.’
Rally cry: As many as 15 people came out to a rally for Darwin's return in December. Nakhuda claimed her pet was illegally seized
Sad: Nakhuda's lawyer's office said she would not be commenting on the decision. After she lost previous interim bids to get Darwin back, Nakhuda left court distraught
At this trial Nakhuda reportedly broke down repeatedly and told the court Darwin has ‘anxiety disorders’ and that she took him everywhere she went.
‘I treated him like a son. It sounds bizarre to some people, but that’s how we treated him,’ Nakhuda said.
On the other side of the debate were Toronto Animal Supervisors who contended that Darwin could be a threat to public safety.
Toronto Animal Services supervisor Carl Bandow also testified to the fact that it is illegal to keep a monkey within the city of Toronto, but that Darwin’s case has prompted the city to consider changing the law.
Nakhuda said the monkey was near her at all times, including while she slept and showered.
Decision: A judge ruled Friday that while the monkey may have worn clothing and slept in his former owner's bed, he is still a wild animal and therefore should not be returned to her
‘At the beginning, I was told that was the best for him because generally, monkeys live off the back of the mom,’ she said.
‘He always had to be within my view,’ she continued, adding that he would ‘get into a panic attack’ the moment she was out of sight.
