Rampaging monkeys kill 250 dogs in India in revenge massacre
NY Post ^ | December 17, 2021 | Gabrielle Fonrouge

In a small Indian village, a pack of murderous monkeys have started a war with the local canines.

Around 250 dogs have been dragged to the tops of buildings and trees and dropped by a crew of raging primates that are apparently furious with the pups after they killed one of their babies, local media reported.

Locals in Maharashtra’s Beed district, about 300 miles east of Mumbai, told News 18 the monkeys have been on a quest for revenge and in the nearby Lavool village, not a single dog has survived the purge.

Villagers told the outlet the killings started about a month ago when a few dogs killed an infant monkey and since then, the moment a dog is spotted, simians are apparently snatching up the pups and dragging them somewhere high to drop them to their deaths.

In one image of the animal war, a tiny dog can be seen in the clutches of a primate near the edge of a building.

The villagers decided to take action themselves and tried to wrangle up the beasts, but the simians then turned their sights on the local men, some of whom have been injured after falling from buildings while trying to save the dogs, the outlet said.

Nearly all of the pups in the Beed district have been killed, but the monkeys still haven’t stopped and are now targeting small children en route to school.

Me too, ever since I was a little kid.

its interesting that they dropped the mutts from buildings as opposed to bludgeoning them, or ?? ..

Fight the pest monkeys with bigger, faster and more savage monkeys.

They have trained the larger langur monkeys to kill and chase away the smaller pest macaques.

Aren’t monkeys worshiped as minor gods in India? Otherwise there would be a massacre of monkeys.

A friend in high school had a pair of spider monkeys in a large cage. The female liked to have her head scratched. The male would poop in his hand and throw it at you.

Did it have anything to do with that 60s anti-drug tv commercial featuring the monkey toy?

That’s what did it for me.

Sorry.

Perhaps try a mesomorph next time.

No, just an instant revulsion the first time I saw them in a zoo.

We visited one temple where people were advised not to take backpacks because the nearby monkeys had learned most tourists carry food in them. They would attack and tear into any backpack.
