Dieting monkeys live a longer healthier life.
Canto, left, a 27-year rhesus monkey, is on restricted diet while Owen, 29, is not.
A new study by a team of researchers at the University of Wisconsin just released last week, claims that rhesus monkeys kept on a special restrictive diet called calorie restriction, which contains 30 percent fewer calories than usual, live a longer and healthier life than those on a normal diet.

When asked for her thoughts about the findings, Kristie Alley said: "Keep me out of it; I'm a human not a monkey."
