ZOO workers believe they have found a new monkey species after this little critter was handed in to them.

Keepers said they were unable to determine what the animal — with its hazel eyes and orange, brown and white dappled fur — was.

It was brought to the zoo by an anonymous man in Wenling, China.

Earlier this year, the same zoo hosted a "wedding" between seven-year-old male monkey Wukong and six-year-old female Xiaoya.

Zoo owners hoping the ceremony would attract more visitors must be pleased with their new attraction.
