Good help is hard to get.

An old prejudice dies hard.

So they spank the monkey for doing a good job? Typical lefties.

I’m guessing the monkeys are having a good time.

File it in the You Learn Something New Every Day inbox: I didn’t even know monkeys were picking coconuts commercially.

>>Male monkeys are able to pick up to 1,000 coconuts a day, Peta says. It’s thought that a human can pick about 80.

Women and minorities most affected

Shock the monkey tonight.

It said it also discovered "monkey schools", where the animals were trained to pick fruit, as well as ride bikes or play basketball for the entertainment of tourists.

The money's is basketball. I'm just sayin'

It’s great
1000 Coconuts and then at the end of the day , steak

President Hussien Obama had all coconuts removed from the areas of Mumbia he was visiting in 2010, so none would drop on his head.

Were monkeys used for this task?

The seriousness of the charge should warrant a investigation.

In a statement, Waitrose said: “As part of our animal welfare policy, we have committed to never knowingly sell any products sourced from monkey labour

That right. We only eat food from slave underpaid labor!

Male monkeys are able to pick up to 1,000 coconuts a day, Peta says. It's thought that a human can pick about 80.

So about 10 coconuts per hour. Must be union labor. Meanwhile, those monkeys don't monkey around. Perhaps they had no bananas.

“As part of our animal welfare policy, we have committed to never knowingly sell any products sourced from monkey labour.”

LOLOL...”sourced from monkey labor.” Now I’ve heard it all.

Animals provided all motive power until man harnessed heat in the late 18th century.

When I worked in China 45 years ago, they used MEN pulling the tow ropes to haul barges up the upper Yangtze. They didn’t even have mules to abuse.

Next time in the market I’ll be sure to look for “No Monkey Coconuts.”

[DouglasKC]

To a monkey it’s got to be a pretty good gig. Spend countless hours a day foraging for food every day or pick coconuts and get as much food as you can eat...in safety.

How to Climb a Coconut Tree

If monkey labor must be banned so must bee labor in the production of honey (and yes Leftist vegans have pushed this issue for years).

[chrisser]

Isn’t this how Planet of the Apes story started out?

[jarwulf]

Humans can only pick 80 coconuts a day?
