Rowdy monkeys face the snip
Authorities in an Indian city are planning to crack down on drunk and disorderly monkeys.
Officials in Shimla city are calling for monkeys to be deported or sterilised if they don't move back into the forest. Wildlife officers have been asked to act following a series of thefts, muggings and car crashes caused by monkeys. Forestry official A K Gulati, said a supreme court decision to ban the feeding of monkeys had had no effect on their behaviour or numbers. "The first option is open surgery which we do not advocate in case of monkeys, that is not good," he said. "The second option is immunisation but it is a costly affair. The third option to look at is the laser technique, which is more safe." He added a project to entice monkeys back into the forest with fruit would continue. There are more than 375,000 monkeys in Himachal Pradesh province, of which 80% live in urban areas where develop a taste for liquor, jumping on cars and biting children. ----------------------------------------- Ok this story I believe... I just showed this article to one of my supervisors who is east indian, and he told me that his mother got bitchslaped by a monkey. She was sitting on her viranda and eating a banana, a monkey jumped on her lap and tried to rip the banana out of her hand. His mother didn't let go so the monkey gave his mother a major bitchslap which led to her letting go of the banana and monkey running away.... I told him that I'd punch the fucker in the face, to which he replied "You DON'T want to fight them, if you're fighting one monkey, you're fighting fifty of them, they are ruthless and they have no mercy, they will bite and beat you to death." I wonder if they have some sort of a monkey riot swat team... I think they should train other monkeys to fight the raging monkeys so you don't waste human lives....

Monkey's can get vicious. I lived in Malaysia for 3 months, stayed with a family down there in a sprawling housing complex. They're house bordered right on the jungle. Didn't think much of it when I first got there, and when I was showed to my room they had big iron bars across the windows. At first I thought I was going to prison or some such thing, but the first morning I woke up to 3 screaming monkey's rattling the bars. Got used to that after a while. While there, I couldn't drive, but the host family I was with let me use a 10-speed bike to get around the local area. VERY quickly learned not to ride under the trees by the jungle border. Monkey's would drop out of the tree and on to your back while you ride underneath. They'd scratch and bite and kick you while riding. Quite an experience

I think monkeys are disgusting. I think I got traumatized when one spit on me when I was very young. It was during a school field trip. Damn dirty apes!
